Eternal Life Hospice provides physician-supported hospice care for eligible patients and families in Palmdale and surrounding communities. Care may be provided in private homes, assisted-living communities, residential-care settings and skilled-nursing facilities throughout Los Angeles County.
Eternal Life Hospice serves Palmdale families with Medicare-certified, physician-supported hospice care — at home, in assisted-living communities and in skilled-nursing facilities throughout the Antelope Valley. Our team can begin a clinical evaluation the same day a referral is received.
Palmdale is one of the largest cities in the Antelope Valley, a high-desert community with a significant and growing senior population. Many Antelope Valley families have limited access to specialized medical services and value a hospice provider that is reliable, accessible and communicates clearly. Eternal Life Hospice serves Palmdale families with the full scope of hospice services — nursing visits, aide support, chaplaincy, social work and 24/7 nurse access — delivered consistently across the valley.
We also serve Lancaster, Santa Clarita, Valencia and Quartz Hill, giving Antelope Valley families a single hospice team for the entire region.
