[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 534383, member: 1722"] They like to keep patients in-home as long as possible because most people want it that way. Hospice monitors the care the patient is receiving and their condition and will move them in when they deem the caregivers can no longer adequately offer the care the patient requires. My mother in law receives frequent visits from an RN and has a aide for a few hours a day. sister in law also qualified to have a homemaker come in one morning a week to assist with light housekeeping. I believe my mother in law will be moved the facility as my sister in law won't have the ability to offer the level of care required at the end of life stage. My grandmother, however, died at home because my aunt was a retired registered nurse and was able to offer a continuity of care right to the end. [/QUOTE]
