Hospice Care and Ambulatory Services: Understanding the Difference

No.

A hospice center is a type of health care facility that provides palliative care to terminally ill patients. Ambulatory care, on the other hand, is a type of health care that is provided to patients who are able to move around and do not require hospitalization. Therefore, it is not possible for a patient in a hospice center to receive ambulatory care.
