About us

Hospice of St. Clare, Inc.·is committed to providing care and comfort to patients facing a terminal illness. Our organization provides comprehensive care for persons at the end stages of life, without regard to race, creed, sexual orientation, or ethnic background.

Typical care starts with a team of Physicians, Licensed Nurses, Social Workers, Chaplains and Hospice Aides who provide highly specialized end of life care. Clients can expect regularly scheduled home visits by team members to evaluate and monitor the patient’s overall condition, provide symptom management, address ongoing problems, and supervise care and comfort. Utilizing the interdisciplinary care team approach our hospice helps to educate and instruct family members or primary care providers on how to manage physical and emotional symptoms such as pain, anxiety or confusion.

Other hospice services can include assistance with the personal care of the patient such as bathing and feeding; transportation to and from the inpatient unit, supplies, equipment and medications related to the primary illness, emotional support and counseling for both patient and family; spiritual counseling; short-term care for problems that cannot be managed at home and follow up bereavement counseling for family members after the patient’s terminal event.

Hospice of St. Clare, Inc. is Medicare certified and the majority of our patients receive care that is fully paid for by Medicare. Medi-Cal and private insurance are also accepted forms of payment.
