Eternal Life Hospice provides physician-supported hospice care for eligible patients and families in Studio 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 Studio City families with Medicare-certified, physician-supported hospice care — at home, in assisted-living communities and in skilled-nursing facilities. Our team operates across the South San Fernando Valley and can begin a clinical evaluation the same day a referral is received.
Studio City is a sophisticated, creative neighborhood nestled between the Hollywood Hills and the South San Fernando Valley, where Ventura Boulevard serves as the commercial spine between private residential streets above and below. Many seniors here have established relationships with West Side specialists and prefer a hospice team that works within those relationships rather than replacing them. Eternal Life Hospice is designed for exactly this — coordinating seamlessly with existing physicians while managing day-to-day care.
We also serve Sherman Oaks, North Hollywood, Toluca Lake, Burbank and Encino, covering the full southern San Fernando Valley.
