Quality End-of-Life Care Services
Compassionate Hospice Care for San Diego locals
Every patient deserves to be treated with respect, dignity, and compassion. It's often that both Hospice care and Palliative care get mixed or used for the same objective, even though they share a lot of services, the goal is different.
At Divine Light Hopsice all our services for Hospice and Palliative Care are home-based, to give the patients the comfort of having all their belongings and family members around them during this difficult time. It also encourages and promotes family involvement in the care process, allowing family members to actively participate in the care of their loved one, and providing opportunities for meaningful connections and quality time together.
​
We pride ourselves on giving our members the best care by also providing the benefit of a more cost-effective service by being at home. This instead of hospitalization, reduces the need for costly hospital stays or institutional care, and allows patients to receive care in a familiar environment, potentially reducing overall healthcare costs.
All our services can be provided where the patient needs it.
