Hospice Agency Referral Partner Program
Families reaching end-of-life transitions often need both a placement specialist and a hospice partner. Building this referral bridge serves families at their most vulnerable moment.
Hospice agencies and senior placement specialists intersect in important ways. Many families who contact me for placement have a loved one approaching the end of life — and a hospice conversation needs to happen alongside or before the placement conversation. Conversely, hospice agencies often have clients at home whose family can no longer manage the caregiving demands, and who need placement into an assisted living, memory care, or SNF setting where hospice can continue. A strong referral relationship between our organizations serves families at their most difficult time.
Why Partner With Erika
Compassionate Coordination
End-of-life placement requires sensitivity that pure logistics don’t capture. I approach hospice-adjacent placements with the same care I would want for my own family.
Bidirectional Referrals
I refer families to trusted hospice agencies when the conversation needs to happen. Hospice agencies refer families to me when the home is no longer a safe or viable setting.
Placement That Accepts Hospice
Not every facility manages the transition of hospice patients smoothly. I know which partner communities have strong hospice integration protocols — and I place accordingly.
How It Works
Identify the families who need both
Many end-of-life family situations involve both a placement need and a hospice need simultaneously. Either of us might be the first point of contact for these families.
Cross-refer at the right moment
If a family contacts me and a hospice conversation is clearly needed, I make a warm referral to a trusted hospice agency. If a hospice client can no longer be cared for at home, the hospice team refers them to me.
Coordinate placement with hospice-accepting communities
For families who need placement while on or about to start hospice, I identify partner communities with strong hospice integration — so the family doesn’t have to navigate two organizations independently.
Follow through at every step
End-of-life family situations move quickly and emotionally. I stay available, move fast, and communicate proactively with all parties — including the hospice team when relevant.
