Hospice has been highly recommended lately from several people and this may be the avenue we take to get my mom (and step-dad) some help. I know we'll have to "interview" a few different hospice agencies but I have no idea what to ask, what all they can provide, things we need to be aware of, etc.
We're in Texas. Mom has private insurance along with Medicare. She's pretty much total care and not in great shape health wise on top of the ALS (can't walk, 2 hips that are bone-on-bone, torn rotator cuff, just a little use of her right hand, speech starting to slur).
Any ideas, suggestions, help would be greatly appreciated. So hard to "cover all your bases" when you don't know what bases need to be covered!
