The benefits of hospice should be considered when appropriate and available.

Having access to these supplies is especially important for those receiving at-home hospice care.\u00a0<\/p><p>Even with all of the materials and support provided by hospice, there are common items that can help families providing home hospice care that are not provided. These items can help create a calm, comfortable, safe atmosphere for those receiving home hospice care.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Sound Machines<\/strong>: Sound machines generate white noise. They can mask outside noises. When in use they promote a calm restful environment that limits outside disturbances and interruptions.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Baby Monitor<\/strong>: Baby monitors are cheap and effective ways for families and caregivers to monitor a home hospice patient without &#8216;hovering&#8221;. Baby monitors allow hospice caregivers to monitor an individual&#8217;s safety and needs from a distance.<\/li><li><strong>Scent<\/strong>: Scent plays a major role in creating a calm and restful environment. Scent can be managed with candles, scent diffusers, or other products. The importance of scent should be considered when planning home hospice.<\/li><li><strong>Baby Powder<\/strong>: Many receiving home hospice may be bed-bound or have limited mobility. This can be uncomfortable and make an individual restless. Baby powder can help to promote comfort and is something many fail to consider.<\/li><li><strong>Bell on clothespin<\/strong>: This is something Scott Strachan learned as a private caregiver. The purpose of the bell and clothespin is similar to a baby monitor. They both allow hospice caregivers to monitor their patients without being physically present at the bedside. Falls can quickly and easily happen without warning. A clothespin with a bell attached to blankets or sheets notifies a caregiver when a hospice patient moves. This can notify the caregiver if an individual needs their attention when a patient does not or can not communicate their need for support.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Pillows, pillows, pillows<\/strong>: A core focus of hospice care is comfort. Individuals receiving home hospice care may need frequent repositioning to promote comfort and rest and minimize injury. This often requires more pillows than are commonly used. Having pillows available can help your home hospice caregiver provide excellent support.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bb53d8a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bb53d8a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c21895c\" data-id=\"c21895c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4388db elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a4388db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Home Hospice tip #3: Hospice cant do it all.<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f7f23b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7f7f23b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The care, attention, support, and resources provided through in-home hospice are amazing.
