When a loved one’s condition worsens, families in Thousand Oaks often feel overwhelmed and unsure where to turn. Pain increases, symptoms change, and waiting is not an option.

Our Hospice Services in Thousand Oaks
Nurse Visits & 24/7 On-Call Nursing
Our registered nurses and licensed practical nurses make regular visits to monitor vital signs, manage medications, and adjust care as needs change. Families in Thousand Oaks also have access to 24/7 on-call nursing support — a real person, ready to help day or night.
Physician Oversight & Symptom Management
Each patient’s care is overseen by our hospice medical director in coordination with the patient’s primary physician. Together, they guide pain management, symptom relief, and medical decision-making to ensure comfort remains the top priority.
Home Health Aides & Personal Care
Our compassionate aides assist with daily personal needs such as bathing, grooming, mobility support, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. These services preserve dignity and ease the physical burden on family caregivers.
Emotional, Spiritual & Social Work Support
Serious illness affects more than the body. Licensed social workers, chaplains, and counselors provide emotional and spiritual support, help families navigate difficult conversations, and offer grief and bereavement support long after a loss.
Hospice Medical Equipment & Supplies
We deliver and set up all necessary hospice equipment directly in the patient’s home in Thousand Oaks, including hospital beds, wheelchairs, oxygen, commodes, and safety aids. Learn more about our equipment support on our Medical Equipment service page.
Physical, Occupational & Speech Therapy
When medically appropriate, therapists help patients maintain mobility, perform daily activities more comfortably, and manage communication or swallowing challenges, always with comfort-focused goals.
Respite Care for Family Caregivers
Caring for a loved one can be emotionally and physically exhausting. Respite care provides short-term relief, hours or days, allowing family caregivers time to rest, recover, and attend to personal needs.
Safe and Comfortable Hospice Care at Home in Thousand Oaks
Hospice care is not about giving up. It is about shifting the focus to comfort, quality of life, and meaningful time together. Our team provides hospice services wherever the patient lives private homes, assisted living communities, board-and-care residences, and skilled nursing facilities throughout Thousand Oaks.
By managing pain and distressing symptoms proactively, we help patients feel calmer and more comfortable, while families gain peace of mind knowing a medical team is always available. This approach allows loved ones to be present as family, not full-time medical caregivers.

How Hospice Care Is Covered in Thousand Oaks
Hospice care is usually covered through the Medicare hospice benefit, Medi-Cal, and most private insurance plans. When eligibility requirements are met, many families in Thousand Oaks pay little or nothing out of pocket for hospice-related services.
Coverage typically includes all medications needed for pain and symptom control, as well as medical equipment and supplies required for care at home. Nursing visits, home health aide support, and therapy services are also part of the hospice benefit when medically appropriate.
In addition, hospice coverage includes emotional and practical support from social workers and chaplains, along with bereavement counseling for families after a loss. Our team takes the time to explain benefits clearly and helps families in Thousand Oaks understand exactly what is covered, without confusion or surprises.
