Hospice versus Home Health

Both services bring care into the home, but they serve different goals and eligibility requirements.

The key difference

Home health provides ordered skilled care focused on recovery, improvement or management. Hospice provides comfort-focused interdisciplinary care for eligible people with a life-limiting illness.

You do not need to select the service before calling. HHHOK can listen, explain the differences and help arrange the appropriate evaluation.
