Hospice care focuses on providing comfort and support for individuals nearing the end of life, with Medicare Part A covering services like nursing care and counseling for patients with a terminal illness and a life expectancy of six months or less. While most hospice services are low-cost for eligible patients, families should be aware that certain expenses, such as room and board, may not be covered.
Caregiver burnout is a common issue resulting from the intense physical, emotional, and mental demands of caregiving, leading to symptoms like fatigue and social withdrawal.
