What is end-of-life care?

End-of-life care focuses on enhancing the quality of life for individuals with terminal illnesses while providing vital support for their families. Our care works alongside medical and hospice services, providing emotional, physical, and practical assistance that fills in the gaps.

How does end-of-life care differ from hospice care?

• Hospice care is a medical service focused on managing symptoms and pain for individuals with terminal illnesses and a prognosis of six months or less. It often includes services provided by doctors, nurses, and therapists.
• End-of-life care from Visiting Angels complements hospice care by addressing non-medical needs to make sure families receive well-rounded care. While hospice teams manage clinical care, our caregivers focus on comfort and practical support to enhance comfort and quality of life for clients.

What will we receive with end-of-life and hospice care?

At Visiting Angels Wayzata, we customize our services to meet the needs of each family. Here’s a look at what you can expect:
