Swift families approach terminal caregiving as competition, constantly comparing their efforts to other family members and keeping score over who contributes more. They track visit frequencies proving their dedication, document hours spent caregiving demonstrating superiority, and resent siblings whose contributions they judge inadequate. This competitive scorekeeping creates bitter divisions when families should support each other collaboratively during difficult times. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care helps DuPage County residents release competitive caregiving for genuine cooperation. Since 2012, we've supported thousands of scorekeeping households learning that collaboration produces better patient care than proving individual dedication through metrics.
Swift families unite through these cooperation-promoting hospice services:


Swift families discover that collaborative cooperation produces superior patient care compared to competitive scorekeeping dividing family members. Client satisfaction reaches 98 families out of every 100 who released competitive metrics for genuine teamwork. Ratings from actual households average 4.9 stars from families who learned cooperation beats competition. 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 competitive caregiving scorekeeping creates destructive divisions when collaboration would serve everyone better. Our staff answers at 847-777-8888 continuously because Swift residents need immediate support ending competitive dynamics. We help families recognize that tracking visit frequencies to prove dedication wastes energy better spent on actual patient care, that documenting caregiving hours creates resentment rather than improving comfort, and that releasing competitive scorekeeping for genuine collaborative support produces the unified family approach patients need far more than divided relatives competing over who demonstrates greater individual dedication.
