Mission

Everyone deserves to experience peace at the end of life. Caring House was established to ease the burden associated with caring for a loved one at the end of life and/or spending it in a facility. As the first and only non-profit, home-based setting in LA County completely focused on helping residents and families through the end-of-life journey, we have transformed that often stressful and traumatic experience into a peaceful and dignified one. Now, instead of worrying about their loved one’s day-to-day needs, residents, family and friends spend their time connecting with each other in a calm, tranquil home-based setting. This allows everyone to focus on what’s important, which has a profoundly positive effect on their mental wellness from that point forward.

Peace at the End of Life

When someone chooses to have their loved one stay with us, we care for the entire family, so they can leave their worries at our front door. Our kind and compassionate caregivers are intimately familiar in all aspects of end-of-life care, since this is our sole focus. Plus, since our residents’ needs are 24/7, so is our staffing. Our caregivers are scheduled 24/7, every day of the year, and they attend to the needs of our residents and families with an average 3-to-1 resident-to-caregiver ratio. Our team also works seamlessly with teams from more than 20 local Medicare-certified hospice agencies in the Greater Los Angeles area, with whom we partner to care for our residents, and we are supported by a dedicated group of volunteers who assist with a variety of duties.
