Hospice Versus Palliative Care. What is the Difference? ESSENTIAL Info for Trach & Vent Users!

Palliative care and hospice care are often confused and the words are used interchangeably. However, they are NOT the same and knowing the difference is essential for those who use a tracheostomy tube and ventilator. Stay tuned to the end to hear how a family was not told how putting a loved on hospice gave medical staff the right to kill their loved one. #lifewithavent #hospicecare #palliativecare #trach #ventilator

Thank You So Much for all of your helpful information dealing with this subject for this is not discussed with the family in case of a medical emegency of what the family would like to chose. Believe it or not hospice care can be forced on the family even if it is not their wishes to not go through hospice care. Palliative Care was never a option while discussing both hospice and palliative care. Does Palliative Care try to find ways to help a patient improve their condition to get better?

[@LifewithaVent]

Hello. Thank you for sharing your insight. Palliative care will assist in helping a patient improve if there are treatment options available.

Does palliative care also provide music therapist? There should also be pastors that could be coming in for people that are in hospice, because both my great grandmother’s were in

[@LifewithaVent]

Depending on a person's health insurance and the services ordered by the doctor, music therapy may or may not be part of palliative care. Thank you for sharing about your great grandmothers and the care they received.
