Hospice Services in Matteson, Illinois | LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care

Matteson families watch quality of life deteriorate while waiting for perfect timing to start hospice that never arrives. They tell themselves they'll enroll once symptoms become unbearable, yet keep pushing through worse conditions hoping things might improve. Meanwhile patients suffer unnecessarily during weeks or months when proper symptom management could have provided comfort. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care helps Cook County residents recognize that waiting for ideal timing wastes valuable comfortable time together. Since 2012, we've encouraged thousands of households to enroll when hospice can actually improve current quality rather than waiting until nothing can help anymore.

Timely Support Throughout Matteson

Matteson families maximize comfort through these properly timed hospice services:

  • Early symptom control from registered nurses who provide relief before suffering becomes severe and harder to manage effectively
  • Proactive personal care offering bathing and grooming assistance while patients can still participate rather than waiting until complete dependence
  • Advance equipment placement including hospital beds and oxygen systems positioned before desperate need when delays cause suffering
  • Social workers preventing regret helping Matteson families recognize that earlier enrollment creates more quality time not less
  • Chaplains facilitating meaningful work offering spiritual support for legacy activities requiring weeks patients lose by delaying enrollment
  • Veteran timely programs through our We Honor Veterans initiative
  • Extended grief preparation continuing counseling for up to 13 months
