Signs Your Loved One with COPD May Benefit from Hospice Care
Some beautiful truth for this Wednesday Wisdom. This is how we uplift. #WednesdayWisdom #caregiving #caregivers
Serious illnesses like COPD are hard to manage alone. You don't have to. We can help. #COPD #SeriousIllness #support #CaregiverSupport
As we celebrate National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, we're celebrating the breadth of care and support hospice brings to not only the patient but their family.

UpliftedCare updated their business hours.
It's National Hospice Month, and we're debunking the myths. Did you know that hospice is not just for cancer? Hospice can help control symptoms, reduce hospitalizations and improve comfort for serious illnesses like COPD, CHF, ALS, dementia, and liver and kidney disease. #HospiceMonth #Hospicetruths
In recognition of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, we're debunking the myths of hospice. One of the things we hear most often from our patients is that they wish they started hospice sooner. Hospice is not for just the last few days of life. #HospiceMonth #Hospicetruths
One of the biggest myths of hospice care is that you have to give up your doctor. In celebration of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, we're working to debunk hospice myths. Your physician remains an active part and contributing of your care. Hospice simply means you have a bigger team of caregivers. #HospiceMonth #keepyourdoctor
In celebration of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month, we're working to debunk hospice myths. Too often misunderstandings about hospice care prevent those in need from getting care that could greatly improve quality of life. #HospiceMonth #HospiceAwareness #hospice

Sometimes the return home visit can lead to a shocking discovery: your parents are not faring as well as they led you to believe. Here are some tips on what to look for in person or via a Zoom visit.
