Hospice Care in Roseville, MI
Updated September 2026. Written and reviewed by the Lily Hospice clinical team.
Lily Hospice provides hospice care throughout Roseville, Michigan, at home, in assisted living, memory care and nursing homes. Our Troy office is about 25 minutes away, a nurse can usually evaluate the same day you call, and a real person answers (248) 955-5100 around the clock.
Roseville is a compact, working city of about 47,000 people, crossed by Gratiot Avenue, Utica Road and I-696, with I-94 along its eastern edge. Macomb Mall, which opened in 1964, is still a landmark, and the side streets are lined with modest ranch homes where many families have stayed for decades. The city has grown more diverse in recent years, and caregivers here are often juggling full-time jobs with a parent’s illness. Hospice brings the care to the house so that family time can go to the person, not the logistics.
Starting hospice in Roseville
Roseville families most often use Henry Ford St. John Hospital on Moross Road in Detroit, Henry Ford Macomb Hospital in Clinton Township, or Henry Ford Warren Hospital on 12 Mile Road. When a hospital team suggests hospice, you can tell the case manager you would like Lily, and we will coordinate the move home. Read about going home on hospice from the hospital, and if your loved one is at St. John, see our guide to leaving Henry Ford St. John on hospice.
From home, it starts with a phone call answered by a real person. A nurse visits, usually the same day, to understand what is happening and what matters most to your family. If hospice is right and the doctor agrees, we admit at home, set up equipment and medications, and write a care plan together. In the first week you will meet your nurse, aide and social worker, and a chaplain if you like. For a family where everyone works, knowing who is coming and when is often the biggest relief.
Who qualifies for hospice in Roseville
Hospice is meant for a person whose doctor expects a serious illness to run its course within about six months if things follow their usual path, and who wants comfort to come first. In Roseville that often means advanced dementia, heart failure, COPD, cancer, kidney disease, Parkinson’s, stroke, or simply the slow decline of very old age. A physician certifies eligibility, and the family doctor can stay involved.
Nobody needs to be bedbound to qualify, and choosing hospice does not mean choosing to stop living well. If you are unsure, read our Is It Time? guide or the signs it may be time for hospice. A Lily nurse will also visit to talk it through, with no obligation.
Paying for hospice in Roseville
Cost is usually the second question families ask, right after “is it time?” The short answer is that the Medicare hospice benefit covers the care team, comfort medications, medical equipment and supplies, respite and bereavement support, and Michigan Medicaid and most private insurance do the same. What Medicare covers in Michigan in detail.
A Medicare Advantage card does not change that; hospice is paid through Original Medicare while the plan continues for other needs. Read how Medicare Advantage works with hospice. What hospice does not pay for is room and board in a nursing home or assisted living. Our page on what hospice costs in Michigan explains the difference, and a Lily social worker will go over it before anything is signed.

A break for the family caregiver
Many Roseville caregivers are adult children who also work, or husbands and wives in their late seventies. Hospice builds in a pause for them. Respite care is a short stay of up to five days in an approved facility, paid for by the hospice benefit, while the family rests. Aides, volunteers and the social worker also help lighten the load week to week. Here is how hospice respite care works.
