The Right Kind of Care NurseRois.com
Who are we gonna call,
When the pain is unbearable?
Where do you find comfort,
Upon knowing your life's gonna end short?
If a loved one is suffering
From an illness that is life-threatening
They need the right kind of service
The palliative or the hospice
For people with symptoms of long-running sickness
And their families are facing challenges
The care they really need the most
Is the one that improves the life of the host
Palliative care is the right approach
If an illness makes it hard to work and coach
This type of care helps you live
A life that is more active
For people who are not expected
To recover and get treated
It's about easing the pain and helping them prepare
Then hospice is the right kind of care
Families and caregivers look after
Nursing homes and hospital offer
The kind of care that also address
Grief of dying, emotions, sadness
Both are meant to bring some relief
When all there's left are their beliefs
They have important differences
But both are vital, and does make sense
Each year a lot of people are in need
Of these kind of service but indeed
Only small percent of them have received
While some just wait at home and grieve
These programs are essential components
To help them live even the last moment
Let them feel more in control of their lives
Even if they only have less of six months,or five
For patients and family support
To deal with their situations in comfort
That kind of need just goes to tell
Palliative and hospice care are important as well
