Compassionate Hospice Care in Los Angeles

Serving Los Angeles families with dignity, comfort, and personalized end-of-life care.

 

Did you know that we pay into Medicare our entire working lives? Medicare or Medi-Cal covers hospice care 100%!

Hospice care is for a seriously ill person who has a limited life expectancy.  Receiving hospice care does not mean you will die within six months. You can continue to receive hospice care as long as your condition doesn’t improve. If your condition improves you can stop receiving hospice care.  Medicare, Medi-Cal, and major insurance with hospice benefits will cover care related to the illness.  Appling Hospice Care is available and prepared to provide quality hospice services for you and your loved ones in Los Angeles County, San Bernardino County and northern Riverside County.  We are a Black owned hospice agency that provides compassionate care to everyone, regardless of race, creed, color, or sexual orientation.  Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Hospice Services may include:

  • Doctors’ services
  • Nursing and medical services
  • Durable medical equipment, i.e., wheelchairs, hospital beds, Oxygen concentrators, etc.
  • Medical supplies, i.e., diapers, underpads, bandages, catheters, etc.
  • Drugs for pain and symptom management
  • Supplemental meal replacements, i.e. Ensure
  • Aide and homemaker services
  • Physical therapy services

  • Speech-language pathology services

  • Short-term inpatient care for pain and symptom management
  • Inpatient respite care, which is care you get in a Medicare-approved facility (like an inpatient facility, hospital, or nursing home), so that your usual caregiver (like a family member or friend) can rest. Your hospice provider will arrange this for you. You can stay up to 5 days each time you get respite care. You can get respite care more than once, but only on an occasional basis
  • Any other services Medicare covers to manage your pain and other symptoms related to your terminal illness and related conditions, as your hospice team recommends

Facing Serious Illness

Facing serious illness is challenging for individuals and families. Quality care providing dignity and comfort is crucial. Knowing the available options can bring reassurance during this difficult time. Hospice care is designed to support not only the patient but also their loved ones, addressing physical, emotional, and even spiritual needs. By focusing on compassionate care rather than curing illnesses, hospice creates an environment where comfort and quality of life are prioritized.

Receiving hospice care does not mean you will die within six months. You can continue to receive hospice care as long as your condition does not improve. If your condition improves, you can stop receiving hospice care. Medicare, Medi-Cal, and major insurance with hospice benefits will cover care related to the hospice diagnosis. Appling Hospice Care is available to provide hospice services for you and your loved ones. Please contact us if you have any questions.
