EP10 - Demystifying Hospice: What Families Need to Know Before It’s Too Late
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Simplify Senior Transitions Podcast, I sit down with Heather Rosnow, Client Relations Executive at Pathways Home Health and Hospice.
Heather brings more than two decades of experience in hospice, home health, and senior care outreach. In this candid conversation, we demystify what hospice really is, when it should be considered, and the biggest misconceptions that stop families from exploring it earlier.
We also talk about:
- The emotional and medical side of end-of-life care
- Why many doctors wait too long to refer families to hospice
- What “comfort care” means—and what it doesn’t
- The hidden benefit of hospice: giving families time, space, and dignity
- Heather’s passion for building community in the senior space through events, volunteering, and education
Whether you’re a caregiver, a healthcare professional, or navigating options for your own loved one—this episode offers heartfelt insight and practical tips to help you prepare and feel empowered.
