What could hospice care do for cancer patients?

Lots of things: Manage pain and other symptoms for once. Perhaps more importantly, allow a patient live the remainder of his/her life with dignity and the best quality of life possible, preferably in his/her house and in the company of the family. Should be strongly considered for those who have chosen not to get aggressive therapy.

End of life care.: Hospice is meant for those who seemingly at the end of life, although that end can still be many months away.
