Our organization was awarded a deficiency free survey from the California Department of Public Health which demonstrates the competency of the individuals serving the community through Hope Hospice and their quality of care.
As we grow, we continue to develop educational programs and activities to increase public awareness with regards to hospice and other end-of-life care issues. We support and participate actively in building community coalitions and partnerships for improving the delivery of hospice care services to the communities we serve… from one neighborhood to the next… one family, one friend, one patient at a time.
