Home Instead, located in Palm Desert, California, specializes in providing non-medical home care services with a dedicated focus on enhancing the quality of life for seniors and those nearing end-of-life stages. While not a traditional hospice provider, Home Instead supports palliative care efforts by delivering person-centered care that complements clinical hospice services. Their caregivers, known as Care Pros, offer compassionate companionship and personal care tailored to each client?s emotional and physical needs, especially during the final stages of life.

A hallmark of Home Instead?s approach is their commitment to dignity and continuity of care in the familiar comfort of clients’ homes. They collaborate closely with families and hospice professionals to ensure consistent support, easing burdens during challenging transitions. Their caregivers are trained in Alzheimer?s and dementia care, enabling them to serve patients with cognitive impairments who also require end-of-life support. Home Instead is deeply engaged with the local community, offering education about aging and caregiving to empower families through the care journey.
