Hospice organizations originated in the early 20th century, with the modern concept being largely credited to Dr. Cicely Saunders, who founded St. Christopher's Hospice in London in 1967. This model emphasized compassionate care for terminally ill patients, focusing on pain management and emotional support rather than curative treatment. The approach quickly gained traction, leading to the establishment of similar facilities worldwide, driven by a growing recognition of the need for dignified end-of-life care. Over the years, hospice care has evolved to include home-based services and interdisciplinary teams to better support patients and their families.

It's essential for patients and caregivers to ensure that hospice providers are Medicare-certified to receive full benefits.
