Hospice Action Network

Hospice & Palliative · California · Free

Advocacy arm of NHPCO advancing hospice and palliative care policy. Relevant for any seriously ill senior whose symptoms (pain, breathlessness, anxiety) aren't being well-managed. Most hospice care happens at home with a visiting nurse, aide, social worker, and chaplain on a rotating schedule. Comfort care decisions are reversible — patients can leave and re-enter hospice as goals change. Free, confidential, and available to any California resident who needs the information.
