The 10 Best Hospice Services for Seniors in Chula Vista, CA for 2025

"VITAS Healthcare seemed to offer what I was looking for and more for my wife. It was recommended to me by the hospital. When I needed nurse help, they sent them and they had routine visits come all the time to check on her. Anything I needed they provided it, like equipment, medication, and everything. So, I was quite satisfied with the services I got from them. I was billed straight through Medicare. The nurses were all great. It has 24/7 phone service, so you could call any time of day or night if you needed help."

"We used in-home hospice service from Comfort & Peace Hospice for my brother before he passed. I believe they offer both in-home and facility-based care but my brother didn't want to leave his apartment. They offered nursing assessment, case management, and in-home aides. They delivered medications and durable medical equipment for him. We had an issue with one of the equipment but they immediately came out and replaced the unit that same day. They were very responsive to phone calls and they were very courteous, considerate, and compassionate. There was no billing because my brother was a veteran, so there was no charge for us, at all. They were very responsive. They brought medications out quickly. They brought a wheelchair and oxygen machines with both the oxygen tank and oxygen generating device. At first, he was assessed by a nurse, and then I would get phone calls from a case manager and the nurse aides came out too and saw him every day. They also brought additional medications for him. We only used their services 3 or 4 days before he passed so it wasn't very long but I would recommend them. They were very good. "

"My grandmother recently passed away and was on Silverado Hospice care. Our entire experience with Silverado has been nothing short of wonderful! After meeting with our first point of contact, Lindsay, the choice was easy and from that point forward, not once did they disappoint. Lindsay made us feel so comfortable in her caring way as she thoughtfully and carefully outlined all of the services that Silverado provides. She even helped us select the perfect care facility for my grandmother, The Gardens in Carlsbad, after we had a horrific experience at Merrill Gardens in Oceanside. The Silverado nurses (Allie, Marcel, and Tim) visited my grandmother frequently and always called to give our family updates on her health status. Their interactions with her were kind, sweet, and gentle. Our social worker, Selena, was very relatable and spent an unrestricted amount of time asking us questions, answering ours, listening attentively, and offering sound advice when needed. She also did activities with my grandmother and helped to make her as comfortable as possible. Chaplains Ron and Evan also visited with her, read to her and brought some brightness to her life. When she took a turn for the worse one of the doctor's came to assess her very late at night. Even the person that answers the main line is polite, cheerful, and relays information quickly. We are so incredibly thankful to Silverado Hospice for the great care they took with my grandmother and our entire family. I would recommend Silverado time and time again!"

"I am very disappointed in the services that my mother received from Odyssey Hospice during her dying process. The staff at Odyssey new that she probably only had a week to live yet no one came by to see her that week as they indicated that they would we had one visit from the nurse but that was about it. I left a message for the nurse two days before she died so she could check her but she did not even show up until after she had passed away. We relied completely on the care of the nursing home and thankfully they did such a great job. "

"My husband had wound care at home for about a month. We saw Heide C. R.N. three times per week and she gave excellent care. She is very personable, thorough, experienced and dependable. She really put us at ease. If we ever need this service again she will be the first person we call! Thank you, Heide Phillip and Maggie Abel "

"Lightbridge Hospice provided compassionate and attentive care to my father during his final days, making a difficult time more bearable for our family. The staff went above and beyond to ensure his comfort and dignity, and their support extended to us as well, offering guidance and emotional support throughout the process. From the nurses to the volunteers, everyone we encountered at Lightbridge was genuinely caring. They took the time to listen to us. I highly recommend Lightbridge Hospice to anyone in need of end-of-life care for their loved ones. Their dedication to providing quality care with compassion is truly commendable, and I am grateful for the comfort and peace they brought to my family during a difficult time."
