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

Bannockburn families research hospice care extensively online then attempt directing professionals to follow their self-designed protocols rather than trusting medical expertise. They arrive at enrollment with detailed plans from internet research, demand specific medications they read about, and expect nurses to implement family-designed care approaches treating professionals as executors of amateur plans. This attempt at being their own medical directors while wanting professional staff prevents hospice from applying proven effective protocols. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care helps Lake County residents recognize that extensive research doesn't replace years of specialized training. Since 2012, we've worked with thousands of well-researched households learning that trusting professional expertise produces better outcomes than implementing self-designed protocols based on internet information.
