Hospice conversations are often filled with fear, uncertainty, and misconceptions. As a result, many families don’t receive hospice care until the final days of life.

In this video, Kristy and Kiersten talk openly about why these conversations are so difficult and introduce Finding Peace: A Meaningful Goodbye, a new hospice program designed to help families understand what hospice truly can be when it’s started earlier.

Finding Peace uses a phased approach to hospice care, focusing on:

• Education and trust-building

• Meaningful moments and togetherness

• Preparation and confidence for the final days

By helping families lean into conversations instead of pulling away, Finding Peace allows patients and loved ones to experience hospice as it was intended — with support, dignity, and peace over time.

• Personalized care coordination
• Education and resources for caregivers
• Up to 80 hours of respite care each year for eligible families

Many families wait too long to consider hospice care, thinking it’s only for the final days. But the truth is, hospice provides comfort, support, and dignity much earlier—giving your loved one more meaningful moments and better quality of life. 💙

In this short video, we break down when hospice is the right choice, how it helps, and why starting sooner can make all the difference. If your loved one has a life expectancy of six months or less, it may be time to explore the benefits of hospice care.
