What does the end of life with dementia usually look like? In hospice care, the passing from dementia or Alzheimer’s is often gentle and peaceful. Many people become increasingly sleepy, rest most of the time, and can often still hear loved ones even when they can no longer respond. That is why hospice teams encourage families to keep talking, holding hands, and simply being present until the very end. Hospice care prioritizes comfort, dignity, and emotional support for both the person and their family during this sacred time. You are never alone on this journey. A peaceful passing is common with the right comfort focused care. What has brought you or your family comfort during this stage? Share below. We would love to support one another. #hospice #dementia #hospicecare
