The holidays often surface feelings of grief – both past and present – and open conversations about family, illness, and loss. It’s also a time when many begin seeking clarity about the support available at the end of life, including what hospice care truly provides.
As we continue our hashtag series, we’re resurfacing the Who Cares episode, The Hidden Side of Grief Support. In this discussion, hosts Dr. Steve Landers and Elyssa Katz are joined by Jason Parsons to break down what hospice care and eligibility really mean, including the six-month prognosis requirement, how services are covered, and why choosing hospice often leads to more coordinated, person-centered care at home.
The episode also explores the emotional and spiritual dimensions of hospice, the relief many families feel once services begin, and the importance of strong bereavement support through and beyond a loved one’s final months.
For anyone facing grief, caregiving responsibilities, or complex care decisions, this conversation offers clarity on how hospice supports dignity, comfort, and connection at the end of life.
