Does anyone have any experience with Hospice houses? My mother has had home hospice, as well as 24 hour care for almost three months. When I arrived today from work, she told me that she was thinking of going into a hospice house, and had spoken to the hospice nurse about it today. I know that one of the people who is taking care of her (a friend of mine) told her last night that we need to hire more people because it was becoming too difficult for my brothers and me to continue as we are. Now I'm troubled that my mother's decision is based on her worrys about being a burden. I never wanted her to feel that way. Would she be more comfortable in a hospice house? In some ways it would be easier for me, in other ways more difficult. I just don't want that to be a factor and I've worked very hard to try to keep her from worrying about me. I can't undo what has been done so I think it's going to happen.
