• What do they sedate you with in hospice?

My aunt is in hospice care right now and the other day I watch her get sedated with something. I think it was for pain? What do they typically sedate you with in hospice?

The idea or goal is to avoid suffering, pain, and distress in terminal patients. Drugs can be sedatives, tranquilizers, hypnotics, anti-vomiting, etc.
