Hospice Action Network

Hospice & Palliative · Montana · Free

Advocacy arm of NHPCO advancing hospice and palliative care policy. A starting point for families navigating advance directives, DNR/DNI decisions, or what comfort care actually looks like at home. Inpatient hospice facilities (some standalone, some in nursing homes) offer 24/7 care when symptoms can't be managed at home. Hospice does not shorten life on average; some studies suggest it lengthens life slightly by reducing aggressive end-of-life treatment. Free of charge — no eligibility paperwork...
