End of Life Resources

Hospice Companies

Hospice companies provide end of life care during, and after, the transition from treating disease to a focus on comfort. Hospice companies care and services include medication management, relieving physical, emotional, and spiritual discomfort, and providing answers during one’s end of life. Hospice care can take place at-home, or in a facility like The Comfort Home. We partner with a Hospice for every guest that stays with us.

Funeral Homes & Crematoriums

A funeral home, or a crematorium, is required by law for certification of the death certificate and final disposition of the body. Beyond visitations and funeral services, funeral homes can manage the publication of obituaries, cremation, filing of the death certificate, and other services.

If you do not wish to have a service, and only cremation, you can work directly with a crematorium. A crematorium can file the death certificate.

Estate Planning

Estate planning attorneys are an essential resource for end of life legal planning to ensure you or your loved one has the proper legal legacy in place. These specialized attorneys can assist with Power of Attorney and Healthcare Directives, Medicaid applications, wills and trusts, asset protection, beneficiary designations, and tax planning.
