Back to the Future of Hospice Care

Despite its frequent buzzword reference today, “person-centered care” is rooted firmly and deeply in hospice care.  The future of healthcare lies in replicating what hospice care is really about -- serving the whole person by an interdisciplinary team who believes in care without barriers. In this episode of Netsmart CareThreads, Samira Beckwith, President and CEO at Hope Healthcare , unpacks what it means and why it’s so important for hospices to go back to the future.  Join us as we discuss: How hospice can serve as a beacon for other areas of medicine Why we must get away from saying “end-of-life-care” What it means to go back to the future with hospice care Why Americans think death is optional The effect of value-based payment models This discussion was taken from our show Netsmart CareThreads.
