Routine Home Care is the most common level of hospice care provided to patients at their place of residence, whether that is their own home, a nursing facility, or an assisted living community throughout Metro Detroit.

Under this level of care, our skilled local care team visits regularly to manage symptoms, coordinate medications, and provide the full range of hospice services. Patients must meet eligibility criteria per federal and state guidelines.

Families in Livonia, Southfield, Farmington Hills, Troy, and surrounding communities rely on our Routine Home Care to help their loved ones remain comfortable in a familiar environment.

Family caregivers give everything they have, and sometimes, they simply need a break. Respite Care is designed specifically to provide rest and relief to those caring for a hospice patient at home.

Choice Hospice arranges short-term inpatient hospice stays of up to five consecutive days in a Medicare-approved facility, such as a hospice inpatient facility, or nursing home. Respite Care is available for up to five days out of every 30 days of hospice service, and our team handles all the arrangements for your family.

For caregivers in Sterling Heights, Warren, Detroit, Dearborn, and across Metro Detroit, Respite Care offers the peace of mind that your loved one is fully cared for while you take the time you need to rest and recharge. Learn more about insurance coverage for hospice services →

Continuous Home Care is provided during periods of medical crisis, when a patient requires intensive, round-the-clock 24-hour home care at home or in a residential facility.

This level of care is designated for patients experiencing acute symptoms, as defined by the Hospice Rules of the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA). During a crisis period, Choice Hospice arranges continuous hospice nursing and/or aide services — a minimum of 8 hours of continuous care is required. If continuous care extends beyond 18 to 24 hours, a transition to inpatient care may be indicated.

Wherever you are in Metro Detroit, from Twin Beach to Bloomfield Highlands, from Shenandoah to Maple Hill, our team responds when your family needs us most.

General Inpatient Care is reserved for patients experiencing acute symptoms that cannot be effectively managed at home or in an outpatient setting.

When a patient’s condition requires a higher level of clinical oversight, Choice Hospice arranges short-term inpatient care in an approved facility staffed by a hospice nurse and registered nurse (RN) on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

This ensures that even the most medically complex situations are met with the expertise and attentive compassion that every patient deserves, serving families throughout Metro Detroit, Oakland County, and Macomb County.
