What is the philosophy of hospice and its importance?

The Philosophy of Hospice (as taken from: http://www.learningplaceonline.com/stages/together/hospice/hospice-philosophy.htm) is as follows:Hospice recognizes dying as a normal process, whether or not it results from disease. Hospice neither hastens nor postpones death. Hospice exists in the hope and belief that, through appropriate care and the promotion of a caring, sensitive community, patients and their families may be free to attain some degree of mental and spiritual preparation for death that is comfortable to them. (Standards of a Hospice Program of Care, National Hospice Organization, February 1979.) The growing hospice movement has brought new hope and meaning for terminally ill people and their families. Hospice affirms life by providing support and care for persons in the last phases of incurable disease so that they might live as fully and comfortably as possible. Hospice care is dedicated to supporting the dignity of the human experience. It is designed to help patients live at home, stay as active as possible, and express and accept their feelings. The Hospice program provides palliative care and therapeutic relief of the symptoms and stressors which may diminish the quality of life for terminally ill patients and their families. Hospice treats the whole person by considering all aspects of the lives of the patients and their families as valid areas of therapeutic concern. Those involved in the process of dying have a variety of physical, spiritual, emotional and social needs. The nature of dying is so unique for each person that the goal of hospice care is to be sensitive and responsible to the special requirements of each individual and family. The philosophy of hospice is important for so many reasons. It allows the patient and the family to be actively involved in end of life decisions. It also allows the person who is dying to remain where they are most comfortable and to be surrounded by people of their own choosing as they reach the end of their lives. Hospice workers comfort and assist and show great respect to the process of life and the end of life.
