What should you ask Covenant Hospice Care before choosing it?
Ask how eligibility is reviewed
52.9% of its live discharges came after six months or more of care (Nevada average 35.3%). Ask how often the doctor recertifies eligibility and what support is offered if a patient is discharged.
Ask how fast they can admit
Ask how soon after the call a nurse can come out, including evenings and weekends, and how quickly medications and equipment arrive.
Ask where inpatient care happens
When symptoms cannot be managed at home, hospice provides short inpatient stays. Ask which facility they use and how far it is from the family.
Ask what the family is expected to do
Hospice supports the family caregiver; it does not replace one. Ask how many aide visits a week are typical and what happens overnight.
