To get my DF in hospice a family friend (who was a retired doctor) convinced his personal doctor to visit DF’s care home for a hospice evaluation.God luck aja
My FIL passed from COPD. He was in some pain we were at wits end trying to get him into hospice. The docs kept saying we need to have him come to the office to do an eval. that would have required a medical transport & I would not do that to him. I finally went to the admin office & broke down. They arranged hospice to come out that night. He was in hospice for several weeks. The morphine at the end kept him comfortable. Good luck
This having to travel to a doctor for evaluation when terribly ill is awful. There should be some circumstances for house calls.
