La Grange families receive terminal diagnosis yet continue planning for distant future as though years remain available. They discuss next year's vacation plans, talk about home renovation projects starting in spring, and make commitments for events six months away despite medical evidence suggesting much shorter timelines. This disconnect between medical reality and planning horizon prevents families from prioritizing what actually matters during genuinely limited time. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care helps Cook County residents align expectations with actual prognosis. Since 2012, we've guided thousands of households toward realistic planning that ensures important priorities happen during time that truly exists rather than imagined future that probably won't arrive.
La Grange families focus appropriately through these grounded hospice services:


La Grange families express gratitude once they stopped planning for distant future and focused on priorities achievable during realistic remaining time.

Our credentials include ACHC accreditation and Medicare certification, while performance assessments place us at 80 points versus the benchmark of 67.
Supporting Illinois families for over 15 years taught us that planning for imaginary distant future prevents accomplishing what actually matters during genuinely limited time. Our staff answers at 847-777-8888 continuously because La Grange residents need immediate help prioritizing realistically. We help families recognize that discussing next year's vacation when prognosis suggests months wastes time that could ensure important conversations happen, meaningful experiences occur, and priorities get accomplished during the actual timeline available rather than imagined future that medical reality suggests probably won't arrive.
