Mesothelioma Home Health & Hospice Care Guidance

Exclusive Content

Amy Pelegrin, Hospice Care Director at The Mesothelioma Center, offers patients and families guidance on home health and hospice care.

Home health and hospice care is usually inevitable with this diagnosis at some point or another. So when a patient is needing that type of care, whether it be home health, hospice, palliative, I can direct them in the right way. Do my research for them so they're able to be in a reputable place, a good facility. I can give them a warm introduction and again, just make this process easier for them. My biggest thing is just to guide them and take a little bit of weight off their plate. Whether it's a patient or a family member, if they are newly diagnosed, if they're in the middle of their diagnosis and they're dealing with this illness. I do believe it is a gift, our organization. The resources that we offer patients, the love that we have for the patients, and the love we have for what we do, I just think that they will be in good hands from the very beginning through this process. You know, they they need hope. You know, they need to know that we will connect them with all the right people. We will give them the resources that we can. We'll do everything we can to make sure that they are guided every step of the way.
