Glossary: Integrative End-of-Life Care
Hospice
Hospice is an organization or institution that provides comfort (a.k.a. palliative) care for individuals who are dying when medical treatment is no longer expected to cure the disease or prolong life. Hospice sometimes also applies to an insurance benefit that pays the costs of comfort care, usually at home for patients with a prognosis or life expectancy of six months or less (Deathwithdignity, 2024).
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique of guided hypnosis that induces a state of deep relaxation and heightened focus to access the subconscious mind. Hypnosis may be used for anxiety, pain management, and behavioral and emotional changes.
