ing in the quality of care.

Expressing the need for regular surveys to understand the nature of improvements required to uplift hospice care, Daniel Levinson, inspector general of the Health and Human Services Department, said “Hospice facilities should be surveyed timely so that problems can be detected and addressed."

Hospice care is all about helping terminal patients pass away in dignity surrounded by the comfort of loved ones. Objectives of hospice care must leave no stone unturned in caring for those in the sunset of their lives. The need of the hour is to conduct periodical surveys to solicit public opinion about improvements in hospice care. Regular inspections will bring to the fore, underlying problems which are impediments to the standards at hospice care units.

Finally, hospice care should not become the last resort of the terminally ill. The experience they provide should be memorable rather than eventful, so that the bereft families find solace that their dear ones lived well and died well.

For information regarding hospice care centers and nature of services, interested readers could access the website of ‘The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization’ which offers a complete service provider directory.
