Hospice is a service every family should take advantage of when the possibility of a loved one passing becomes a reality.
Hospice care in San Diego provides an interdisciplinary approach with several team members involved in the person’s care. The team members will visit the patient according to the care plan laid out with the family before hospice services begin. Hospice services are on call 24/7 once care is started.
Nurse and/or Case Management
He or she will develop the plan of care and coordinate all other services. A nurse’s duties will include pain management and overseeing medications and supplies.Home Care Aid
This person will provide help with all activities of daily living, such as hygiene, bathing and dressing. They can also help with miscellaneous household duties depending upon need.Social Worker
This person will address the emotional needs of the patient and family, including bereavement counseling and end of life coping skills. They can also provide resources for financial and legal matters.Clergy
If requested, a chaplain or clergyman can come in to provide religious, spiritual or other related services and rituals that are important to the patient.Volunteers
Hospice care would not be possible without the dedicated volunteers who selflessly devote their time helping families. A volunteer can perform most any task needed, as long as it is not medical or requiring a special license.Integrative Therapies
Some hospice services are now offering integrative therapies such as massage, music therapy and aromatherapy.Client Testimonials
I came across Lise after dealing with several other senior consultants, all of whom were either located out of town or not at all in tune with what I was looking for.
Lise was a “breath of fresh air”, taking the time and patience to learn about my parents and their needs.
She saved me LITERALLY hours upon hours of time and effort by providing me referrals to senior homes that met my criteria.
To say that she knows the San Diego senior market and is very well connected thereto would be an understatement!
At all times, her ONLY concern was getting my parents located in a place that was best for them, and for our family!
I recommend Lise without reservation. You may contact me for a reference/further information about my experience at any time.

Lisa found my mother in law a palace to live in for her final days. Give us tons of information and basically took us through the whole process all without charging a dime. She seems to know everything about everyone of the homes in this area and answered all of our questions at least twice (sorry about that part Lisa 🙂 Some of them on a Sunday afternoon (sorry about that too Lisa)
The place told us they were giving us a discount because they really like her (Lisa that is) which is awesome. Thank you so much for helping my dying relative find such a perfect place to spend what little time she has left.

There is no one better than Lise when it comes to placing a loved one. I have not seen anyone work harder and never give up on the more difficult cases. Being in Senior Care myself you learn quickly who you can trust, and I trust Lise more than any other Senior Care adviser out there!
