Optimal Hospice Care

Hospice care focuses on comfort, dignity, and quality of life for people with terminal illnesses. Services are delivered wherever a patient calls home, including private homes, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes. Care includes pain and symptom management, medications, equipment and supplies, and emotional and spiritual support for patients and families. Bereavement support is also available after a loss. An interdisciplinary team includes nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers. The organization serves families in Fresno as part of a nationwide hospice network. Its care team is available around the clock to answer questions, explain eligibility, and discuss next steps.
