Hospice staff members work together as a team to support the patient as well as the patient's loved ones. Hospice care is not limited to a person's home. Hospice care can be received in a variety of institutional settings including: nursing homes, assisted livings, group homes, and the hospital. The healthcare team sees a person's place of residence as their home and gives all patients the same care and services regardless of location.
