Hospice care may be considered for anyone doctors believe to have a life expectancy of less than six months.

Different diseases and conditions each have their own guidelines for hospice admission. The most common of these diseases or conditions include ALS, cancer, dementia, heart disease, HIV, kidney disease, liver disease, lung disease, Parkinson’s disease, stroke and coma. Sometimes a patient does not “fit” into the guidelines but still has a life expectancy of six months or less and therefore may be eligible for hospice.
