Journey Palliative and Hospice is proud to serve patients who are part of Optum California, offering compassionate hospice care in Burbank, Los Angeles, and across Los Angeles County. Our team partners with Optum to ensure seamless coordination and support for patients and their families during this sensitive time.
What Is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is specialized end-of-life care for patients with a life-limiting illness who have a prognosis of six months or less. The focus is not on curing the illness but on maximizing comfort, dignity, and quality of life. Our care is provided wherever the patient calls home, whether that’s a private residence, assisted living facility, or nursing home.
