Many people hear the word hospice and immediately feel fear or uncertainty.

Dr. Lida Fatemi, Physician Designee at ABQ Hospice, shares an important clarification about what hospice care actually provides and why it can be such a valuable resource for patients and families.

Hospice is more than medical care. It offers nursing support, physician oversight, social work, spiritual care, care coordination, and 24/7 access to a professional team focused on comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

Watch Dr. Fatemi's message to learn more about what hospice is, what it isn't, and how it helps patients receive compassionate care wherever they call home.

Palliative care ≠ hospice. Most people don’t know the difference — and it deeply affects how patients are treated.
Palliative care allows for aggressive treatments while managing symptoms like pain or nausea. Hospice, on the other hand, is usually for those no longer receiving curative treatment.
The twist? 💰 Much of this is shaped by how our healthcare system works behind the scenes.
