Eternal Life Hospice provides physician-supported hospice care for eligible patients and families in Panorama City 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 Panorama City families with Medicare-certified, physician-supported hospice care — at home, in board-and-care homes and in skilled-nursing facilities throughout the Central San Fernando Valley. Our team can begin a clinical evaluation the same day a referral is received.
Panorama City is a densely populated, diverse neighborhood in the central San Fernando Valley, home to a large Latino community and a high concentration of board-and-care homes and residential care facilities. Eternal Life Hospice has deep experience serving families in exactly these settings — coordinating care within small residential facilities, apartment buildings and single-family homes — with the same quality of nursing, aide support, chaplaincy and social work available regardless of care setting.
We also serve Van Nuys, North Hills, Mission Hills, Pacoima and Arleta, providing coordinated care across the central and northern valley.
