    This book is a perfect blend of compassion and competence that addresses the core values of care, the interdisciplinary team, self-care of staff, and the needs of an aging society.

    I REALLY like this book.

    I have been using Marrelli books in Home Health for years. The Hospice books is every bit as good.

  3. Nikki Coffin –

    Tina Marrelli provides an outstanding and resourceful tool for staff, management, and administrators of hospice and palliative care. Her expertise and passion for patient-care quality is evident. Her knowledge of regulatory and compliance expectations is clearly presented and a great asset. Examples and case studies are an empowerment for learning. And the post COVID-19 observations of health disparity and impact on professional nursing help define current hospice and palliative care practice.

  4. Mary Helen Tieken –

    I just received Hospice & Palliative Care Handbook, Third Edition, by Tina M. Marrelli. It is an excellent resource with quality, compliance, and reimbursement issues addressed in an easy to read format – I will be using it as a tutorial for my hospice staff. Gives a few of the major diagnoses with eligibility, teaching, safety, care planning ideas with great explanations on how to address those patients who seem to plateau. The author is the one who wrote the Little Red Books (many of us used those books early on in home health). I’ve been in hospice for a very long time and this is one of the best books I have found for using to teach staff and provide guidance for hospice care and documentation. It’s small in size and would be easy for staff to carry around. It addresses all disciplines, too. And, No, I am not getting paid to say this – it really is that good.

  5. Kenneth L. Miller –

    Hospice & Palliative Care Handbook, Fourth Edition, is a must-have for administrators and clinicians because it perfectly weaves together clinical practice and the regulations that govern hospice care. This book is very comprehensive and easy to navigate. It has useful information for novice and seasoned clinicians and administrators and should be a staple for new orientation/onboarding, annual competency training, and when developing policies and procedures.

    Tina Marrelli is a well-known home care and hospice expert. Her Hospice & Palliative Care Handbook is a classic work, now in its fourth edition. Clinicians must not only be caring and compassionate, but also knowledgeable and competent in managing are during the most difficult of times for patients and their families and caregivers. This book is a must-have resource for every clinician who provides this very special care.
