It appears that there just aren't enough people terminal patients to support Hospice's financial goals. So, they are going to make patients terminal.

Well stated!!!

Medical ambulances will be busily moving patients out of the nursing homes--and into hospices.

It's much easier to find staff capable of "allowing" people to die, than finding staff capable of caring for disabled people.

Physical therapists need not apply.
