At Maxcare Hospice, we understand how difficult it is to care for a loved one with a terminal illness. That’s why we provide expert hospice care in La Mirada CA—focused on comfort, dignity, and personalized support for both patients and their families.
We deliver care where your loved one feels most at home—whether in a private residence, assisted living, or skilled nursing facility.
What Is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is for people with a terminal illness who have decided to stop curative treatment. Instead of focusing on a cure, hospice focuses on comfort and quality of life—relieving pain, managing symptoms, and offering emotional and spiritual support.
At Maxcare Hospice, we build a custom care plan for every patient. Our team includes nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers, all working together to provide compassionate care in La Mirada.
Four Levels of Hospice Care
We offer four levels of care to meet the needs of each patient:
- Routine Home Care
Our team visits regularly to provide pain management, medication support, and help with daily needs. - Continuous (Crisis) Care
When symptoms worsen, we offer extended in-home care—day or night—to help stabilize and support the patient. - General Inpatient Care
For more serious symptoms, we provide short-term inpatient care in a facility to ensure close medical supervision. - Respite Care
We offer up to five days of inpatient care so family caregivers can take a much-needed break, knowing their loved one is in good hands.
When to Consider Hospice in La Mirada
You may want to consider hospice if your loved one has been given a prognosis of six months or less, is no longer responding to treatment, or has begun to decline physically or emotionally. We’re here to help you understand the signs and know what to expect.
