Hospice workers go to homes because the hospice patient prefers to be at home to die, instead of a hospice house.

What is the difference between hospital services and hospice services for elderly patients?

A "hospital" is a place where people go to get some medical treatment when they are sick or injured. Most major cities have several hospitals. When you go to a hospital, you generally hope to come back alive. When you go to a 'hospice', on the other hand, you go with no such hope. One generally goes to a hospice knowing he/she is going to die. A hospice is a special hospital where people who are terminally ill get admitted. These people have no hope of being cured. So, unlike a hospital, a hospice not only takes care of the medical needs of a patient, but also looks after his emotional needs. The focus here is on keeping people as comfortable as possible - both physically and emotionally. By the way, the final "pice" in 'hospice' rhymes with the words "miss" and "kiss". The final 'e' is silent and the main stress is on the first syllable. Here are a few examples.
