Crestwood families hesitate calling their hospice team for "small" problems—assuming nurses should only handle serious emergencies, feeling guilty about bothering professionals with minor questions, and suffering through manageable issues unnecessarily. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care teaches Cook County residents that no concern is too small when someone is dying at home. Since 2012, we've encouraged thousands of families to reach out early and often rather than waiting until minor discomforts become major crises. Our philosophy emphasizes prevention through prompt attention, making ourselves genuinely available for every question and concern without judgment.
Crestwood households receive these truly available hospice services:


Crestwood families learn quickly that we mean it when we say call anytime for anything. Reviews from families show 98 in every 100 feel comfortable reaching out whenever needed, while our average 4.9-star rating reflects appreciation for genuine accessibility. We've earned ACHC accreditation and Medicare certification, with performance evaluations rating us at 80 points compared to the typical 67-point industry score.
Throughout our 15-year history supporting Illinois families, we've prevented countless complications by addressing small problems before they escalate. Dial 847-777-8888 whenever questions arise—our team genuinely welcomes calls about minor concerns because early intervention prevents major issues. We're committed to breaking the pattern where Crestwood families suffer silently, worry unnecessarily, or let manageable problems worsen because they felt their concerns were too trivial. No question is stupid, no concern is too small, and no time is wrong to call. Our job is supporting families through everything—major emergencies and minor worries alike—ensuring nobody struggles alone with problems we could easily solve.
