What Is Hospice Care?
Hospice is specialized care for people with a life-limiting illness. The goal is comfort and quality of life. Care can take place where you live, including a private residence, assisted living, or a nursing facility in Orange County. Hospice helps you manage symptoms, reduce stress, and spend meaningful time with the people you love.
What you and your family receive:
- Pain and symptom management from an experienced clinical team
- Emotional and spiritual support for you and your loved ones
- Help with bathing, dressing, and daily needs from compassionate aides
- Medications, supplies, and equipment related to the hospice diagnosis
- 24/7 phone support for urgent needs and guidance
- Education for caregivers so you know what to expect and how to help at home
Choosing hospice does not mean giving up. It means choosing support that helps you focus on what matters most.
