The role of hospice care has been evolving. In addition to the typical functions of pain management and symptom control, hospice facilities now work to provide emotional support to their patients and families. Staff members understand that feeling panic, angry, and helpless are normal at this time, so measures are put in place to address this stress and anxiety.
Additionally, hospice facilities have embraced spiritual care, which, for many, is an essential part of the end of life. Many hospices try to incorporate a harmonious spiritual environment for their patients. Activities include music therapy, massage, and Reiki (the belief in touching with the hands to strengthen energy fields in the body).
