"Little dove I love you so
but I know you had to go.
So spread your wings
and fly my love,
soar above the world my dove.
Paint the sky indigo,
let your graceful colors flow
and I’ll search the sky
for your rainbow."

Hospice, by definition, is a team-oriented approach to providing specialized care for people facing a life-limiting illness or injury. It includes expert medical care, pain management and emotional support for patients and their families. But more simply, hospice care supports living one's life to the fullest with dignity regardless of how much time remains.
* Hospice focuses on caring, not curing and, in most cases; care is provided in the person's home.
* Hospice care also is provided in freestanding hospice centers, hospitals, and nursing homes and other long-term care facilities.
* Hospice services are available to patients of any age, religion, race, or illness.
* Hospice care is covered under Medicare, Medicaid, most private insurance plans, HMOs, and other managed care organizations.
