Hospice Care from True North Home Care
Hospice care is comfort-focused care for someone with a terminal illness, delivered by a licensed hospice agency's team of nurses, aides, social workers, and chaplains wherever the person lives, with the goal of easing symptoms rather than curing the illness.

Does home care replace hospice services?
No. True North Home Care does not replace the hospice organization. Hospice remains responsible for the individual's medical and clinical plan of care. Non-medical home care provides additional help with everyday activities and caregiver support.
Can care adjust if needs change during hospice?
Yes. End-of-life care needs may change quickly. A person may need only a few hours of support initially, then later require longer visits, overnight care, or 24-hour coverage. True North can discuss and adjust services as the situation evolves.
