Hospice care is a type of care that focuses on the quality of life for individuals who are experiencing advanced illness. Its goal is to provide comfort and support for the patient and their family, rather than a cure for the illness. Hospice care focuses on management of symptoms so the patients can continue the rest of their life in as little pain as possible.
