Hospice is a philosophy of care focused on comfort and quality of life at the end of life. It's designed to treat the whole person emotionally, socially, spiritually, and physically by providing comfort and support to patients and their families.
At Texas Best care Hospice, we believe that life encompasses much more than just physical health; it also includes the health of the spirit. When one's physical health begins to fail, the nurturing of the spirit becomes critical for preserving the dignity of the individual.
Patient Eligibility
Hospice is provided to patients who have a terminal illness – which is defined as having a prognosis of six months or less if the disease or illness runs its normal course.
Texas Best Care Hospice care focuses on living life to its fullest and treating patients with the dignity and respect they deserve.

Hospice is at its best when is has time to work. Care that’s provided for months is more beneficial than hospice administrated only in the patients last days. A doctor can best determine the right time to consider hospice. Here are some signs to watch for:
- Negative effects of current Treatments
- Frequent Hospitalization
- Chronic Weight Loss
- Consistent Pain
- Frequent Nausea or Vomiting
- Inability to move or maintain personal care
Most Terminally ill people wish to be comfortable and home during their last months, surrounded by family and friends. However, many wait too long to contact a hospice provider, despite abundant evidence showing that early hospice care can greatly improve the quality of life for both patients and their loved ones.
