Hospice vs. Palliative Care

Palliative care can greatly benefit individuals with chronic, life-limiting conditions. However, many eligible individuals do not receive referrals for palliative care due to a lack of understanding about the services it provides and confusion about the differences between palliative care and hospice care. This course covers the different types of care, detailing when each is appropriate and highlighting key transition points. It explores the range of services offered, the roles of the healthcare team members involved in providing care, and an overview of sources of payment.

This course aims to equip nurses and social workers with knowledge about the differences between palliative care and hospice care.
