Traditional hospital medicine is medicine related to hospital care. Hospital care means any aspect of caring for someone in the hospital setting, whether the person is expected to recover and be released, sent to another facility, or is expected not to live. Hospital care is geared toward the treatment and possible cure of an illness or ailment, with the hope that the person will recover.
On the other hand, hospice care is the care of a person who has been diagnosed with terminal illness, and expects there not to be a cure for it. Therefore the hospice patient is receiving care that is geared toward ultimate comfort and improvement of quality of life during those final days or months of his life. This type of care is known as palliative care, or comfort care.
It should be noted that not all palliative care is geared towards hospice patients: to care could also be geared toward patients who have a chronic condition that is also not curable, such as someone with cerebral palsy.

The Helpful Hospice ...
I'm not totally clear on what your question is, but I'll try to provide you with some information here. More info is found on my website.
Hospice is a service that can be provided to a patient in their home or in a facility. For patient's who wish to remain in their home, Hospice services can be provided in their home. Most Hospice providers don't provide 24/7 care, so family involvement or paid caregivers may be required.
Hospice can also be provided to patients who reside in a facility, whether they are in a hospital, nursing home, or assisted living center.
If you choose, and have some available in your area, there are Hospice specific facilities that provide a 24/7 environment for Hospice patients who are unable to be cared for at home and who do not already reside in a facility.
Regardless of your choice, you'll find that you or your loved on can receive quality care at any of these options!

What is meant by informed choice within dementia care?
To make an informed choice about dementia care means researching all possible options before making a decision. Ask yourself questions like, "Who will pay for dementia care? Does my loved one want dementia care at home or in a nursing home? Does my long-term care insurance pay for elder care? How can I budget for dementia care when IHSS runs out? How much does dementia care on a live-in basis or hourly basis? What does it mean to be licensed, bonded and insured? What are the pros and cons of hiring a caregiver from a private ad vs. a home care agency?" Assess your resources and weigh your options before deciding on what kind of dementia care you want or can afford.
