What's the difference between home health, palliative, and hospice care?
Home health is short-term skilled care to help you recover at home. Palliative care relieves the symptoms and stress of a serious illness alongside ongoing treatment. Hospice care focuses entirely on comfort and quality of time when curative treatment is no longer the goal. Pathways offers all three and can move you between them as needs change.
