This partnership also offers an important option for short-term respite care, affording individuals who care for a patient in their own home the flexibility to travel, recuperate or tend to business. If a patient is currently receiving hospice services, they may be transferred to Sunset Nursing & Rehabilitation Center for up to five days, ensuring they continue to receive compassionate, professional care while their caregiver is away. Hospice respite care is a Medicare and Medicaid-covered benefit for eligible patients who have elected the hospice benefit, subject to applicable coverage guidelines and care planning. Coverage, eligibility, and any applicable cost-sharing are determined based on individual patient circumstances and payer requirements.
