Offers for end-of-life care
Inpatient hospices
Inpatient hospices specialise in the care of people who have serious, incurable illnesses and are in the last phase of their lives. An inpatient hospice is intended for situations where medical, nursing or psychological needs are especially complex and cannot be met through care at home. The main focus is on nursing and psychosocial care. Admission to an inpatient hospice is possible if care at home or in a care facility is no longer feasible and hospital care, for example on a palliative care ward, is not necessary. A hospice offers end-of-life care and support. Inpatient hospices are designed to feel homely: for example, they have a kitchen, overnight accommodation for relatives or other close persons, and therapy rooms.
Costs: The cost contributions for inpatient hospices vary depending on the provider and federal province. In some federal provinces, the costs are based on the regulations for accommodation in a retirement and nursing home: up to 80 percent of the income (excluding special payments) and 80 percent of the care allowance. You will retain at least 10 percent of the care allowance level 3.
