Q
My husband has been in hospice care for six weeks. After three weeks they told me is wasn't going down fast enough and I should move him back to a nursing home. After three more weeks they want to meet with me to discuss his condition. He has lung cancer and had a stroke three years ago that left side paralyzed. Doctors told me he was not a candidate for home hospice so I put him in a hospice facility. What questions should I ask at the meeting about what to do if they say he needs to stay or if he needs to be moved?
