Hospice Supportive Care Services

Facing the final stages of a serious illness is never easy for the individual or their loved ones. At Interim Healthcare of La Jolla, we offer hospice care at home that prioritizes dignity, comfort, and quality of life. Our supportive approach ensures that individuals can spend their remaining time in peace, surrounded by loved ones and the familiarity of home.

What is Hospice Care?

Hospice care at home is designed for individuals with a terminal illness who have chosen comfort care over curative treatment. It focuses on symptom management, emotional support, and holistic care, enabling patients to remain in their preferred setting while receiving expert, compassionate care.

Our hospice supportive services bridge the gap between medical needs and emotional support, offering comfort for both patients and families during a profoundly sensitive time.

  • Pain and Symptom Management: Ensuring physical comfort through close coordination with medical providers.

     

  • Emotional and Spiritual Support: Compassionate conversations and guidance for both patients and families.

     

  • Caregiver Relief: Providing trusted assistance so family members can rest or step away when needed.
