Paper Topic

I am researching how hospice care can benefit the families of the residents to depict to hospice centers how important it is to prioritize the families as well as the resident and to inform perspective residents on some of the advantages choosing hospice could hold for them. My target audience would be the hospice centers themselves and anyone interested making a future plan for end-of-life care. I believe it is very important for people to know their options and be informed about the pros and cons choosing hospice and to let hospice centers know what they are doing that is good and what could be improved upon. As morbid of an outlook as this is, everyone is going to die so it is beneficial for everyone to know about hospice as an option when the time comes. I think this essay will turn into more of an informational essay with a call to action to make hospice care centers even more prepared to help families deal with grief. I could also do a compare and contrast between the benefits that hospice centers have on families verses the benefit hospitals have on families.

  1. Hey Laura! I think it would be great to do a compare and contrast type of essay that informs the reader with points that may bluntly show how important it is to open their options from being set on hospitals to the possibilities of hospices. I think what would be very beneficial to the reader is to specifically tell why they should open their minds up to Hospices, and what benefits making that decision can make. I hope this helped!

  2. I agree–a comparison of different types of care could be very beneficial. There are many options open to you for how to present this information–no need to stick with just essay format!

  3. I think it would be really cool if you did some sort of informational packet or pamphlet aimed at getting people to think about their end of life care and how hospice care could benefit them or their loved ones. I agree with you that this is such an important thing for people to think about, and it is something people don’t necessarily want to talk about.
