If her doctor’s / providers feel that her conditions give her a life expectancy of 6 months or less, yes a referral to Hospice would be a very good idea. At minimum, has she had a referral yet to Palliative Care? If she is not yet a hospice candidate, palliative care could be very helpful providing direction towards available resources in the community. If she does not already have a medical social worker on board with her case, this could also be very beneficial.
