Individualized Care
Angel Care Hospice & Palliative is dedicated to providing compassionate, dignified, and holistic end-of-life care that honors every individual’s values, wishes, and culture. We serve all communities, honoring veterans and individuals from all walks of life across Southern California, ensuring expert, equitable support for each patient and their loved ones.
Routine Care
Routine home care is the cornerstone of our hospice services, providing compassionate, patient-centered support in the comfort of your home, assisted living facility, or nursing home. Our interdisciplinary team integrates skilled nursing, medical social services, and chaplaincy to deliver holistic end-of-life care, emphasizing dignified symptom management, spiritual guidance, and comprehensive bereavement support. This level of care includes advanced medication management, durable medical equipment, and necessary supplies tied to the hospice diagnosis, ensuring comfort and respect at every step.
Continuous Care
Continuous care is activated when a hospice patient experiences acute symptom escalation that necessitates intensive, around-the-clock monitoring and management. During this phase, a dedicated hospice nurse provides compassionate bedside care for a minimum of 8 hours per 24-hour period, with the option to extend support up to 24 hours as needed. This high-acuity, short-term intervention is specifically designed to stabilize fluctuating symptoms, ensuring prompt and effective palliative management while maintaining the patient’s dignity and comfort during their end-of-life journey.
Palliative Care
A key advantage of palliative care is its focus on enhancing quality of life for individuals facing serious illness. Through comprehensive pain and symptom management, an interdisciplinary care team works to provide comfort, dignity, and emotional support. By addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual distress, patients can experience holistic care that allows them to cherish time with family and caregivers and participate in meaningful moments.
Respite Care
Respite care offers a temporary reprieve for primary caregivers, ensuring continuity of compassionate care for individuals receiving hospice services. Angel Care Hospice and Palliative collaborates with contracted inpatient facilities to provide short-term respite care, allowing caregivers the opportunity to rest and recharge. During the respite stay, which lasts no more than five days, the patient continues to receive holistic, person-centered care in alignment with their individualized plan of care, maintaining comfort, dignity, and support throughout the transition.
Inpatient Care
The inpatient level of care is designed for patients requiring advanced symptom management beyond what can be provided in a home setting. This short-term intensive care is delivered in a contracted hospice facility, ensuring access to specialized, around-the-clock skilled nursing support. Individuals experiencing uncontrolled pain or distressing symptoms may transition to an inpatient hospice unit through Angel Care Hospice & Palliative, where they receive compassionate, multidisciplinary care focused on comfort, dignity, and stabilization before returning to their preferred care environment.
Care Team
Our compassionate, multidisciplinary hospice and palliative care team is dedicated to guiding your family through the complexities of end-of-life care. With a continuum of care—from symptom management to emotional and spiritual support—we ensure that your loved one receives individualized, dignity-centered care while providing your family with essential counseling and respite support during this challenging time.
