Bartlett families monopolize hospice visits discussing their own emotional struggles rather than letting professionals focus on actual patient care. They treat nursing visits as personal therapy sessions sharing family drama, use chaplain time processing their own spiritual crises, and prevent staff from concentrating on patients who need attention. This self-focused approach steals care time from dying loved ones while treating hospice professionals as personal counselors rather than patient caregivers. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care helps Cook County and DuPage County residents refocus visits on patients requiring care. Since 2012, we've redirected thousands of self-absorbed families toward recognizing that hospice staff serve patients not family members needing therapy.

Supporting Illinois families for over 15 years taught us that treating hospice visits as family therapy sessions steals care time from dying patients. Our staff answers at 847-777-8888 continuously because Bartlett residents need immediate patient-focused support. We help families recognize that nurses visit to care for patients not counsel family members about personal problems, that chaplain time belongs primarily to dying individuals not relatives processing their own spiritual struggles, and that hospice staff concentrate best on actual patient needs when families stop monopolizing visits discussing issues unrelated to providing comfort during terminal illness.
