[quote=Anonymous]My father was in hospice in his nursing home. They offered morphine as needed during his final week when he was no longer eating or drinking (no artificially administered fluids or nutrition per his advanced directive). They hospice nurses worked with his usual nurses to determine his level of discomfort. I think that they only administered it a few times. We used Gilchrist. Their staff was wonderful.[/quote]
