Barb has given you the information you need. From your small amount of information you gave it sounds as though your Dad could be admitted to hospice

Do you have the number of a local hospice organization you can call.? If you go to the blue box at the bottom there is an option to check off hospice. You put in your zip code and it will give you contact info for local hospices.
