Hospice Foundation of America

Hospice & Palliative · Missouri · Free

Education and resources for those facing end-of-life issues and grief. Relevant for any seriously ill senior whose symptoms (pain, breathlessness, anxiety) aren't being well-managed. Hospice intake usually happens in 24-48 hours from the first call; teams visit at home and don't require a hospital stay. Comfort care decisions are reversible — patients can leave and re-enter hospice as goals change. Open at no cost to Missouri seniors and the families supporting them.
