When a loved one is facing the final stages of life, having the right hospice care in place can bring peace, comfort, and support. At Maxcare Hospice, we provide compassionate hospice care in Fullerton CA for patients and families who need guidance and relief during this difficult time.
Our experienced care team brings personalized hospice services to wherever your loved one lives—at home, in an assisted living facility, or in a nursing home. We focus on helping patients feel comfortable and supported while offering emotional and spiritual care for the entire family.
What Is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is for people with a terminal illness who are no longer receiving treatments to cure their condition. Instead, hospice focuses on comfort, dignity, and improving quality of life in the time that remains.
At Maxcare Hospice, we take a team-based approach to care. Nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers work together to support the patient and provide guidance to loved ones. We build each care plan based on the patient’s needs, values, and goals.
If your loved one is in Fullerton, we bring services directly to them—so they can remain in familiar surroundings, close to the people they love.
Four Levels of Hospice Care
We offer all four levels of hospice care to meet the changing needs of each patient.
- Routine Home Care
This is the most common level of care. Our team visits regularly to help with medications, manage symptoms, assist with personal care, and provide emotional support. - Continuous (Crisis) Care
When symptoms become severe or unmanageable, we provide extended in-home care—often overnight—to help stabilize and comfort the patient. - General Inpatient Care
If care at home isn’t enough, we provide short-term care in a facility to control pain or other complex symptoms until the patient can return to home care. - Respite Care
Family caregivers need time to rest. We offer up to five days of inpatient care so caregivers can recharge while we provide full-time support to their loved one.
When to Consider Hospice in Fullerton
Hospice may be the right choice if your loved one has a terminal illness, a life expectancy of six months or less, or is choosing comfort over aggressive treatments. Frequent hospitalizations, rapid decline, or difficulty with daily tasks can also be signs it’s time.
Our team can help you understand the signs and walk you through the process when the time feels right.
