Hospice care not meant to be a last resort, offers more benefits
[NH] The Laconia Daily Sun; by Anna Swanson, Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health; 6/24/25
Hospice care is often misunderstood. Too many families see it as a last resort — something to turn to only when there’s “nothing else to do.” But at Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health, we see it differently. Hospice is not about giving up. It’s about choosing how to live. Hospice care is a gift — a chance to focus on what truly matters when time is short. It’s about comfort, dignity, and presence. It’s about saying yes to meaningful moments and no to unnecessary suffering.
