    No workie in it, but recent experience with it after my father's hospitalization.

    My wife passed 3 1/2 years ago. Barb received what was called "hospice in the hospital", which is different from hospice assistance at home, which is different from end of life care in nursing facilities. More focus with the original post would be helpful.

    I have to agree with Roger. There's also the less publicized, but important aspect of hospice that is "longer term" where immediate demise isn't necessarily the case. (That's the situation with my father, quite frankly) Some context would be helpful so we can help you.

    My sister and her husband both work in hospice. She has an M.S. in social work specializing in hospice, and he is a hospice nurse. Be happy to assist in any way I can. You may look at their sight at caringchoices.com . PM if I can help
