Episode 3: Quality of Life at the End of Life

“Hospice care is all about giving patients a voice and a choice in how the last few months, weeks, or days of their lives are lived.”

– Dr. Michael Dozeman, Hospice & Palliative Care Physician

There is often the misconception that once someone enters hospice care, they are giving up or waiting to die. In reality, hospice care is not just about preparing someone for their final days but enhancing the quality of life for that person up to months before. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Michael Dozeman, a hospice and palliative care physician at Faith Hospice, to discuss the philosophy of these areas of care and to dispel some common misconceptions.
