It was such a comfort to have Myrna here when my husband was on hospice. She was so attentive and compassionate and I never could have gone through this loss without her.

I've known the owners of this hospice for close to 2 decades now. Years ago when I started my career in hospice, one of the owners (Myrna) was a surveyor for the Dept of Health, and they would show up unexpectedly for impromptu inspections of the hospice I worked at. Needless to say, it was always a stressful experience. Over time though, I came to appreciate the benefits of oversight because the guardrails are in place to ensure every hospice performs to a minimum level and standard of care. It gave me a lot of confidence in Myna to see the way she advocated for the patients we were serving. At the back of my mind, I was mentally adding her to "my" hospice team if I ever needed one.
Over the years, I have reached out to both Myrna and Stacey for help and guidance whenever I had family or friends who needed hospice. They've always been there for me. If they couldn't help, they always pointed me in the right direction. So when they opened their own hospice in San Diego, it seemed to me like the natural next step. If you or your loved one are fortunate to land in their care, know that you are in good, experienced and compassionate hands. They really are the best.
