You know I've driven by a hospice center near my home and I'm always struck by how drab and boring it looks. It looks like a bank or a branch of the DMV. It's sad to me that that is the kind of value we place on our elders. Shouldn't they spend their last days in a place of beauty? Sculptures, gardens, a frog pond, anything. Not this boring grey cube. It's so sad.



No one needing hospice care is up walking around enjoying the outdoors.


It'd sure be nice to see through a window from your bed, though, or to share a stroll with a family member if you can get into a wheel chair.


A ton of hospice is actually done in home. Is this just a base of operation for hospice workers who are doing home visits?
