Depends. (no pun intended)
My Mom, age 93 & already living in board & care, entered, then got out of the hospital and looked like she was a goner in mere days. She looked like pure crap.
45 days later, she’s blown everyone’s mind with how well she has recovered.
Statistically, I have no doubt you’re right. But sometimes people come out of hospice. Yes, it is the exception. Obviously, we’re all headed on a one-way path and at the point where everyone agrees a patient should be in hospice, the end clearly approaches.
Got any stats, references to back that up?
