What support is available for family caregivers?
Family caregivers play an essential role in hospice care, and our team is committed to supporting them throughout the journey.
Hospice support for family caregivers includes:
- Hands-on caregiver training for managing medications, personal care, and recognizing changes in condition
- Emotional counseling from social workers and chaplains for anticipatory grief and caregiver stress
- Respite care — Medicare-covered short-term inpatient stays for up to 5 days so caregivers can rest and recharge
- Connections to community resources, support groups, and practical caregiving tools
Our goal is to ensure that families feel supported, informed, and never alone in this experience. Caregiver wellbeing is inseparable from patient wellbeing, and we treat both as a priority.
Families throughout coastal Southern California rely on our support. Learn more about hospice care in Long Beach.
