Welcome to the California Hospice & Palliative Care Association | Site Map | Hospice care is a special way of caring for those facing a life-threatening illness
The most common misunderstanding about hospice is the belief that a hospice is a "place." In fact, most patients receive hospice care in their own home, although it can also be provided in other facilities as well
The California Hospice and Palliative Care Association advocates for those facing life-threatening illnesses
We provide technical resources to our members, monitor legislative and regulatory activities, and work closely with other organizations that share an interest in end of life care
We partner with the California Hospice Foundation, to offer public and professional educational programs and materials to enhance understanding and availability of hospice and palliative care
