Healthcare for Homebound Older Adults and End of Life Care

The resources listed here are organizations that provide in-home healthcare for homebound older adults and individuals with advanced illness in need of hospice services or home-based palliative care. Additional resources listed in this section include community-based legal services that support homebound older adults. This type of resource may be necessary so that homebound older adults can complete legal documents to uphold their medical wishes and establish legal surrogates in the case of memory loss or dementia.

此处所列资源，为面向居家行动不便老年人，以及需要临终关怀服务或居家姑息照护的重症晚期患者，提供居家医疗护理的机构。本章节额外收录的资源还包括面向居家行动不便老年人的社区法律服务。此类资源的存在十分必要，可帮助居家行动不便老年人在出现记忆衰退或痴呆状况时，完成相关法律文书，以明确自身医疗意愿并指定法定委托代理人。
