What's the Difference Between Holistic Care and Hospice Care?
Although the terms holistic and hospice are often used interchangeably, they are in fact different. Hospice is typically defined as care of the terminal or dying person, usually with a life expectancy of six months or less. Whereas, holistic care is supportive care for clients with a wide range of needs, regardless of life expectancy.
Holistic Care
Holistic care can benefit anyone with a chronic health condition, regardless of life expectancy.
Holistic care helps maintain quality of life and relieves suffering for many individuals.
Hospice Care
Hospice care is mostly aimed at patients who have been diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Hospice care specifically focuses on the period closest to death, and is aimed at providing patients with a dignified, pain-free end of life. Hospice care can be delivered both by residential and community-based hospices.
Each Senior Home Care by Angels agency is a franchise that is independently owned and operated. The Franchisor, Visiting Homecare International Inc., does not control or manage the day to day business operations of any Senior Home Care by Angels franchised agency.
