The hospice nurse is assessing the patient at home for the first time. The patient has a lot of questions regarding what the role hospice will have as the illness progresses.
 
  The patient states, I don't want to be in pain and kept alive, but I'm not ready to die either. What is the best response that will educate the patient of the role hospice will play in his or her care? a. Hospice will make sure you are pain free, how long you live is up to you and the doctor.
  b. Hospice focuses on the quality of life, including pain management, rather than how long you will live.
  c. Hospice will give you enough pain medication to keep you pain free. This is a higher priority than quality of life.
