[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Following[/quote] OP here. I called Hospice and they indicated that I could start my dad on Hospice out of state and then do a hospice to hospice transfer when he is ready to move here. My dad is very frail and I don't know how I can physically get him here. It's about a 14 hour drive. I don't think I can get him on a plane. In addition to cancer, he also has COPD and has respiratory distress on a plane. The other challenge is that home hospice only provides about 3 days/week visits for a nurse or home health nurse for a couple of hours. He needs a lot of help and care so I have to figure out how to provide that care during the hours that I am working. I'm just so overwhelmed trying to figure this issue out. [/quote]
