Children’s hospice care

Is a specialized form of hospice care for infants, children's and adolescents who have been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness. Like all hospice care, it takes an interdisciplinary approach to care, yet it specializes in treatment of children's pain and other issues unique to children. Not all hospices provide hospice care for children.
