Hospice Care for Anaheim Families

When an Anaheim-area hospital physician certifies hospice eligibility, MAR Hospice Care can be contacted directly by the discharge team. We work with social workers at Anaheim Regional Medical Center and other area facilities to arrange intake, medication review, and equipment delivery before the patient leaves the hospital, so care is ready on day one at home.

Hospice is layered on top of the existing facility care; the patient stays in their familiar environment while our team provides additional clinical support, comfort care, and family guidance.

Yes. Alzheimer's disease and other dementias qualify for hospice when the condition has progressed to a late stage. For Anaheim patients with dementia, hospice focuses on comfort, managing agitation, preventing pain, assisting with personal care, and supporting the family emotionally. Our team has experience working sensitively with memory care patients and their caregivers.

MAR Hospice Care provides care in English, Spanish, Armenian, and Russian, with interpreter services available for additional languages. Anaheim's diverse community means clear communication in the patient's preferred language is essential to quality hospice care. Our team works to ensure every family fully understands their care plan, their rights, and all available support.

A physician must certify that the patient has a life-limiting illness with a prognosis of six months or less. Anaheim families can initiate the process by calling MAR Hospice Care directly, and we will contact the treating physician, complete the eligibility evaluation, and begin enrollment at no cost under Medicare, Medi-Cal, or most private insurance plans.
