It must first be determined WHY the patient's POA will not release Hospice. They may have a perfectly good reason, (i.e.: the patient's outlook is guarded, or death may be more imminent than anyone realizes). Has anyone asked them? If they will not communicate with the immediate family, you could contact the court and peitition their removal from their authority.
