Compounding to comfort hospice patients
Hospice care is rooted in the idea that everyone has the right to die pain-free and with dignity. In many cases, care is provided in a hospice facility with round the clock caregivers or at the patient’s home with a loved one serving as the primary caregiver.
Medications play a major role in the hospice environment, as caring for the hospice patient focuses around providing comfort by means of medicating to relieve and manage symptoms.
