Compare and contrast hospice care and palliative care.
Both type of cares are provided to seriously ill patients and are beneficial, sometimes both terms are used interchangeably but it is wrong as there is difference in palliative care and hospice care with respect to timing like:
|
Palliative care |
Hospice care |
|
This is like a curative care which involves the therapeutic regimen including medication and treatment plans when there is hope that patient may get cured and will be normal |
But this is comfort care which is provided in last when all the treatments get failed and there is no hope of survival of the patient |
|
It begins from diagnosis and involves treatment |
Begins at the end when patient is hardly to survive less than 6 months |
|
More emphasis on the treatment plans |
more emphasis on the family counseling and support |
|
This care is provided at the hospitals, nursing homes and palliative care clinics |
Can be provided at home and nursing home sometimes at the assisted facility centers |
