Sometimes hesitation comes from past experiences… and that’s completely human. 💙

Our Marketing Liaison, Payton, shares a powerful story about a son who delayed hospice for his mom because of what his family went through during COVID — only to realize later that hospice care is covered and could have provided comfort and support much sooner.

If your loved one is experiencing frequent falls, infections, low energy, or a noticeable decline… don’t wait for a crisis to start the conversation.

✨ Earlier support means more comfort, more guidance, and more peace of mind.

📞 Reach out to Hearthstone Hospice to talk with Payton or a member of our team. We’re here to help you understand your options — no pressure, just support.

The #1 Question Families Ask Before Starting Hospice Care
When families begin considering hospice for their loved ones, the most common question we hear at Hearthstone Hospice is: "Will hospice mean we’re giving up on treatment or hope?"

We want you to know: Hospice care is not about giving up, it’s about shifting the focus from curing to comfort, dignity, and quality of life in the final chapter. Our team at Hearthstone Hospice creates individualized care plans that address medical, emotional, and spiritual needs for both patients and families, ensuring you never feel alone in the process.

If you’re wrestling with this question, you’re not alone, and the answer is that hospice is about making the most of every moment together.

One of the biggest hospice myths?
“That’s only for the very end.”

Actually… the earlier you call, the more we can help.

Hospice brings comfort and symptom relief sooner for patients and gives caregivers space to focus on loving, not logistics.

Less chaos.
Less stress.
More comfort.
More meaningful time together. 💛

If you’re unsure whether it’s the right time, you don’t have to figure it out alone. A member of our care team is always happy to talk it through with you.

Call 586-991-1529 anytime.

With Hearthstone Hospice, we’re here before the crisis ...not after.

Most people think hospice is just nurses and medications.

But there’s one team member families quietly lean on the most… our chaplain. 💛
Ever wondered what a hospice chaplain actually does and why Medicare requires one as part of the hospice benefit?
Meet John and see how spiritual care, presence, and simple human connection can change everything for patients and families.
Because comfort isn’t always clinical.

In our newest blog published, we delved into the importance of holistic care for elderly residents. Hospital stays can lead to increased confusion, decreased appetite, and the risk of acquiring infections. By focusing on holistic care, such as hospice, we can ensure residents receive comprehensive support that aligns with their preferences. This approach not only respects their wishes but also enhances their overall well-being and quality of life. Read the full blog here
