74-C. Tools to Enhance Your Hospice and Palliative Care Referrals

Are you looking to increase referrals to your palliative and hospice care programs, extend the length of stay, and provide patients with more quality days at home? This session will equip you with the tools you need to achieve these goals. Representatives from a national association of nonprofit hospices will share insights from their work developing and implementing three community-based advanced illness management programs focused on cardiac, lung, and dementia care. Presenters will describe the resources they created to promote clinical excellence in hospice care and improve access to their programs. You'll gain insights into the key components of advanced illness management and receive materials you can share with hospice patients and their caregivers.
