Hospice

Hospice care is a way of caring for individuals who are facing a life-threatening illness such as mesothelioma. Hospice services generally are provided using a team-oriented approach that includes expert pain and symptom management, along with emotional and spiritual support. Many patients receive hospice care in their own homes, although it can also be provided in other facilities.

Source: EWG Action Fund analysis of shipment invoices from Libby, MT.

*Numerous shipment invoices from Libby that were tallied by U.S. EPA did not include a specific street address for the destination, the tons shipped, or dates of shipment; some invoices lacked all this information, based on the EPA database in which the tabulations are recorded. As a result, the 'tons shipped' data presented here likely underestimate the actual amount of asbestos shipped to specific destinations, states, or for the United States as a whole.
