Hospice is understood as Palliative care in Ecuador.
FASEC is now in partnership with Santa Ines Hospital whose staff is being trained in palliative/hospice care. This newly remodeled facility gives three types of care: 1) post surgical recovery 2) chronic illness 3) hospice/palliative care. In addition to 2 and 3 bed rooms, there are 7 private rooms with private baths. Since all staff speak Spanish, use of a translator on admission and intermittently is helpful.
