Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Fox Chase
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Fox Chase?
No. A hospital or physician can share names they work with often. You may still compare any Medicare-certified hospice that will come to the patient’s address. Calling for information does not enroll you.
Should we contact more than one hospice about Fox Chase?
Yes. Compare who covers the exact address, how soon a nurse can get there, and who answers after hours. A referral is a starting point, not a requirement to use one brand.
Can hospice care be provided at home in Fox Chase?
Yes. Most hospice care happens where the patient already lives — a house or apartment, or assisted living, memory care, or a nursing facility. Ask the team to confirm that specific address, not only the city or county name.
How quickly can hospice start in Fox Chase?
When hospice is medically appropriate, many teams begin within about 24–48 hours, and some can start the same day when staffing allows. Ask who comes first and how a night call is handled. Then verify by phone.
Is Jefferson Abington Hospital in Fox Chase?
No. It is in Abington, in Montgomery County. Fox Chase Cancer Center and Jeanes Hospital are in Fox Chase, inside Philadelphia.
Is Fox Chase outside the city?
No. Fox Chase is a Philadelphia neighborhood. It has its own page because families look for it by name.

What to compare
When you call, ask about:
- Whether the team covers the exact address, not only the city or county name
- Who would come after hours, and how long that usually takes
- What happens if symptoms cannot be managed at home
- Medicare quality and family-experience information on each profile
Where hospice care happens in Fox Chase
Most hospice in Fox Chase happens in the house, apartment, or care facility where the person already lives. A short stay somewhere with a nurse through the night is for symptoms that cannot be managed at home. Ask which bed they would use, and whether that bed is in Fox Chase or across the line in Abington.
Local considerations for Fox Chase families
Fox Chase Cancer Center and Jeanes Hospital are in the city, in this neighborhood. Jefferson Abington Hospital is in Abington, across the city line, not in Fox Chase. A Northeast Philadelphia plan is not automatically this street.
Say Fox Chase when that is the neighborhood, and say Abington when the home is over the line. Ask whether the night nurse is coming from inside the city or from Montgomery County.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- Fox Chase Cancer Center and Jeanes are in Fox Chase
- Jefferson Abington Hospital is in Abington, in Montgomery County
- Fox Chase is inside Philadelphia
- The city line changes the night drive
The home address decides who can come. If that address is outside Fox Chase, open Philadelphia County before you compare.
Where to start
Use the patient’s exact address, then open a tighter page if the home is in Philadelphia County, Philadelphia, Chestnut Hill, Greater Philadelphia, Willow Grove, Montgomery County.
