🧐 "Is it time for hospice?"

It's one of the most common questions families ask—and it's not always easy to answer.

Some signs a loved one might be ready include:
• Withdrawing from favorite activities
• Frequent falls or infections
• Unintentional weight loss
• Multiple ER visits or hospitalizations
• Expressing a desire to avoid more hospital trips
• Sleeping more, eating less

Understanding these signs can help you make the most compassionate choice possible.

💛 “They were all wonderful people…”

When hospice care is done right, it brings peace, dignity, and comfort not just to the patient—but to the entire family.

Bridges Hospice cared for Leo with love for over a year, allowing him to pass peacefully at home. His wife shared her gratitude, and her heartfelt words speak volumes.

Choosing the right team makes all the difference.

💡 Did you know?

Patients with terminal illnesses who received hospice care lived an average of 29 days longer than those who did not—while also experiencing less physical and emotional distress.

Hospice care is not about giving up—it’s about living more comfortably and meaningfully for as long as possible.
