HISTORY OF HOSPICE CARE
18. • Cecily Saunders introduced the idea of specialized care for the dying to
the United States during a 1963 visit with Yale university. Her lecture,
given to medical students, nurses, social workers, and chaplains about
the concept of holistic hospice care, included photos of terminally ill
cancer patients and their families, showing the dramatic differences
before and after the symptom control care.
The Modern Hospice Movement
19. • In the 1950s, as medical technology developed, most people died in hospitals.
The medical profession increasingly saw death as a failure.
• Physical pain associated with terminal illness was not a target of treatment.
• Dame Cicely Saunders, MD, founded St. Christopher’s Hospice in London in the
1967, in an effort to discover practical solutions to alleviating human suffering.
• She introduced hospice in the U.S. in a lecture at Yale in 1963. This contact set off a
chain of events which resulted in the development of hospice care as we know it today.
The Modern Hospice Movement
20. A Swiss psychiatrist, Kübler-Ross first introduced her five
stage grief model in her book On Death and Dying.
21. • 1972: Kubler - Ross testifies at the first national hearings on the subject of death
with dignity, which are conducted by the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging.
In her testimony, Kubler - Ross states,
“We live in a very particular death-denying society. We isolate both the dying
and the old, and it serves a purpose. They are reminders of our own
mortality. We should not institutionalize people. We can give families more
help with home care and visiting nurses, giving the families and the patients
the spiritual,emotional, and financial help in order to facilitate the final care
at home.”
HISTORY OF HOSPICE CARE

37. Volunteers - ABSTRACT – Timelink US
In 2019, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that by 2035 there will be 78 million people 65 years
and older compared to 76.4 million under the age of 18, marking an important demographic
turning point. In Long Beach, a city in Los Angeles county, 11.7% of its population is
65 years and older, and adding to this, by 2025 22% of Long Beach’s senior
citizens will be living below the poverty line. TimeLinks US aims to help and support these
people in a holistic way by providing services that go beyond clinical care. Specifically, we aim
to provide in-home support to seniors with daily chores, picking up medicines, buying groceries,
or just keeping companionship in the face of growing prevalence of Alzheimer's and dementia.
Our mission is to promote giving and receiving through time banking credits that will help
support families, neighborhoods, and the community by empowering seniors. Time credits/dollars
is something that TimeLinks US will use to exchange services with other
members, save it for future needs, or they can also be donated to other members
who cannot earn their own Time credits. We believe that no one should have to feel helpless and
alone in this crowded world by building strength, support, trust and creating networks in the
community. This proposal will give a detailed overview on how we shall achieve these
38.
39. How hospice works??
Hospice care can be provided onsite at some hospitals, nursing homes, and
other health care facilities, although in most cases hospice is provided in the
patient’s own home. With the support of hospice staff, family and loved ones are
able to focus more fully on enjoying the time remaining with the patient.
When hospice care is provided at home, a family member acts as the primary
caregiver, supervised by the patient’s doctor and hospice medical staff.
40. The hospice team makes regular visits to assess your loved one and provide
additional care and services, such as speech and physical therapy or to help with
bathing and other personal care needs.
As well as having staff on-call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, a hospice
team provides emotional and spiritual support according to the wishes and beliefs
of the patient. They also offer emotional support to the patient’s family,
caregivers, and loved ones, including grief counseling.
How hospice works??
41. LEVELS OF CARE
ROUTINE HOME CARE-
- most common level of care provided.
- interdisciplinary team members supply a variety of services during routine
home care, including offering necessary supplies. ( diapers, bed pads, gloves,
& skin protectants)
42. CONTINUOUS CARE
- Is a service provided in the patient’s home.
- Intended for pts. who are experiencing severe symptoms & need
temporary extra support.
- Provides services in the home a minimum of 8 hours a
day.
43. -Is an intensive level of care which may be provided in a nursing
home.
-intended for pts. who are experiencing severe symptoms which require
daily interventions from the hospice team to manage.
-Often, patients on this level of care have begun the “ active phase” of dying.
GENERAL INPATIENT CARE
44. addnl - RESPITE CARE - ( referred as respite inpatient)
- Is a brief & periodic level of care a patient may receive.
- A unique benefit in that the care is provided for the needs of the family,
not the patient.
- Is provided for a maximum of 5 days every benefit period.
46. Is Hospice the Same as Home Health Nursing?
Two primary differences between hospice care and home health nursing:
1. Any patient with a skilled medical care need is qualified to receive home
health nursing care. Hospice care, on the other hand, is limited to persons with a
terminal illness, with a life expectancy of six months or less, and with a focus
on palliation not cure.
2. Patients in home health care receive visits primarily from a nurse while
patients in hospice care receive the services of an entire interdisciplinary team
whose area of expertise is end-of-life care.
47. Palliative vs.Hospice
• Both focus on improved qualify of life
• Both are delivered by specialists
• Both have been shown to improve survival
• Both tend to be delivered by a team of individuals with knowledge of
complex symptom management
• Both work with the patient’s other clinicians to provide an additional layer of
patient care
48. Palliative vs.Hospice
• Hospice is a medical insurance benefit, with its own set of regulations
• Hospice care is typically provided in the home, whereas palliative tends to be
hospital or clinic based
• Hospice specifically cares for patients with terminal conditions where survival is
typically <6 months
• Palliative medicine is delivered irrespective of prognosis
• Both are provided regardless of diagnosis
59. • Shanti Avedna Sadan in Mumbai, a hospice, in 1986 . Over

Delhi and one in Goa;
