Hospice Care

  Many hear the word “hospice” and picture a place where people go to die. But hospice is not a place, it’s a philosophy of caring for terminally ill patients with compassion, support and symptom management, so they may face the end of life with dignity, and in as much comfort as possible. Hospice of the Bluegrass Northern Kentucky Director, Carla Foster, and Sandra Lobert, president and CEO of Hospice of Cincinnati discuss hospice care.

Maryanne Zeleznik is responsible for all news and public affairs programming at WVXU. She also hosts Morning Edition Monday through Friday.
