Mission Statement
At Brio Home Health & Hospice, hospice is both a philosophy of care and a health care program. Hospice is the philosophy that people facing advanced terminal disease should have every opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest and to have dignity and comfort in every day of life. Hospice is also a healthcare program wherein patients in the advanced stages of terminal disease receive as much care as possible in the comfort of home, and this care focuses on symptom management, support of the family, comfort, quality of life, and dignity.
Description
Brio Home Health & Hospice truly embraces the hospice philosophy and places great, great importance on the time our clients spend in hospice care. Each patient's quality of life during this very important time takes precedence over other concerns. Our hospice doctor is very involved with each admission. Each home is robustly staffed with nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains (as indicated), and volunteers to ensure each patient's needs are addressed as fully as possible.
Our service area is a 50-mile radius from our office in Chino Hills, California. This includes: Orange County, the Inland Empire, San Bernardino County, Riverside County, and Los Angeles County.
