What Is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is for individuals with a terminal illness who have chosen comfort care over aggressive treatments. The focus shifts from curing to caring—managing symptoms, controlling pain, and offering emotional and spiritual support.
At Maxcare Hospice, we build a personalized care plan for each patient. Our team includes nurses, home health aides, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers, all working together to provide well-rounded care.
If your loved one lives in La Palma, we bring hospice services directly to them—so they can remain in a familiar, comforting environment.
Four Levels of Hospice Care
Maxcare Hospice provides all four levels of care to meet your loved one’s changing needs.
- Routine Home Care
This is the standard level of care. We make regular visits to assist with pain relief, daily tasks, and emotional and spiritual support. - Continuous (Crisis) Care
If symptoms become severe, we provide extended in-home care—often overnight—to keep the patient stable and comfortable. - General Inpatient Care
If the patient’s condition cannot be managed at home, we offer short-term inpatient care in a medical setting to bring symptoms under control. - Respite Care
Family caregivers need time to rest. We provide up to five days of inpatient care, giving caregivers a break while ensuring the patient is well cared for.
