As stated in the SOC313 Family Document, Ella is nearing the end of her life due to cancer. Ella is currently in the hospital and will be released to her home, as is her preference. John, her husband, will provide the majority of Ella’s care. The remaining family members will help, taking turns with their visits and duties for providing care for Ella and John as well as the normal functions of a household.

For this discussion, you will research the services Hospice provides for the patient and family. Describe one Hospice program that will be beneficial to help the family provide care for Ella. Justify why you feel this service is the best choice, and which family member(s) will benefit from the service the most.

Next, research a community program or a support service that is not offered through Hospice. Choose a program or service you found during your research and describe the service offered. Explain how the service will support the family in providing care for Ella.
