Dad was comfortable for the first time in months. The nurse came at 2 AM without us even asking twice, and she stayed until he was settled. They cared for all of us, not just him.
When the goal of care becomes comfort, Sors Hospice surrounds patients and families with expert medical care, gentle hands, and unwavering support — wherever you call home.
Sors Hospice, Inc. is an ACHC-accredited, Medicare-certified hospice serving the greater Los Angeles community from our office on Wilshire Boulevard. We care for people facing serious, life-limiting illness — and just as importantly, for the families who love them.
Our interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers works from one coordinated plan built around what matters most to each patient: comfort, dignity, and time that is truly theirs.
"Our promise is simple — no one walks this road alone. Not the patient, and not the family."
Hospice is comprehensive by design. Your Sors team brings medical care, personal care, and human presence together under a single plan.
Expert relief of pain, breathlessness, nausea, anxiety, and restlessness — so comfort is never out of reach.
Regular RN visits to assess, adjust medications, teach caregivers, and stay ahead of changes.
Our hospice medical director partners with your own doctor to guide the plan of care.
Gentle help with bathing, grooming, and personal care that protects dignity and eases the family's load.
Practical guidance — benefits, advance directives, funeral planning, and family decision-making support.
Spiritual support honoring every faith and tradition — or simply a calm presence, if that's what's wanted.
Hospice-related medications, hospital bed, oxygen, wheelchair, and supplies — arranged and delivered.
Companionship, respite for caregivers, errands, and friendly visits from carefully screened volunteers.
Grief counseling and check-ins for the family, continuing for up to 13 months after a loss.
Medicare defines four levels of hospice care. Sors provides all four — and moves between them as needs change, without paperwork landing on your family.
The heart of hospice: scheduled visits from your team wherever you live, with 24/7 on-call support between visits.
Extended nursing at the bedside during a symptom crisis — hours of care at a time, until things are settled.
Short inpatient stays (up to 5 days) that give family caregivers time to rest and recharge.
Hospital-level symptom management in a contracted facility when comfort can't be achieved at home.
Not sure what level is needed? That's our job, not yours — call (213) 915-0029 and we'll assess, recommend, and arrange it.
Families often tell us their only regret was waiting. Hospice works best when there is time — time to control symptoms, time to support, time to simply be together.
Hospice may be appropriate when a physician believes life expectancy is six months or less if the illness runs its natural course — but you don't need to be certain to call. A conversation costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Speak with a real person at (213) 915-0029. Patients, families, physicians, and facility staff can all start the conversation.
We evaluate at home, in the hospital, or at a facility — answer every question, coordinate with the physician, and verify the benefit at no cost.
If hospice is right and you choose Sors, we handle the paperwork and orders. Equipment and medications begin arriving the same day.
Nurse visits begin, the aide schedule is set, and the 24/7 line is on your refrigerator. From here on, you are never alone in this.
The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers hospice services related to the terminal diagnosis: team visits, medications for comfort, equipment, supplies, and all four levels of care. Medi-Cal and most private insurance provide comparable coverage. We verify everything before care begins and explain it in plain language.
Dad was comfortable for the first time in months. The nurse came at 2 AM without us even asking twice, and she stayed until he was settled. They cared for all of us, not just him.
I thought hospice meant giving up. Instead my wife got a team who managed her pain, a chaplain who sat with her, and I got someone to call at any hour. It gave us our last months back.
After Mom passed, they didn't disappear. The bereavement counselor called, then kept calling. A year of gentle check-ins — that's not a service, that's kindness.
And the answers we give at kitchen tables every week.
No. It means changing the goal from curing the illness to caring for the person — treating pain and symptoms aggressively while supporting the whole family. Many families find patients are more comfortable, more alert, and more themselves on hospice.
Anyone whose physician certifies a life expectancy of about six months or less if the illness follows its natural course — any diagnosis, any age. Common diagnoses include cancer, heart and lung disease, dementia, kidney and liver failure, and stroke.
For eligible patients, the Medicare Hospice Benefit covers hospice services related to the terminal illness at 100% — visits, comfort medications, equipment, and supplies. Medi-Cal and most private plans offer comparable coverage. We verify your benefits before care starts.
Wherever the patient lives — a private home, an assisted living community, or a skilled nursing facility. Hospice is a service that comes to you, not a place you go.
Yes. Your physician can remain involved and continue directing care alongside our hospice medical director — most doctors welcome the partnership.
It happens. Patients can be discharged from hospice if their condition stabilizes, and can return later if needed. Patients may also revoke hospice at any time to pursue curative treatment. Nothing about hospice is a locked door.
Often the same day you call. Evaluations are typically completed within hours, and once consent is signed, equipment, medications, and the first nursing visit follow quickly — including evenings and weekends.
Caregiver teaching, social work guidance, chaplain support, volunteer respite, a 24/7 nurse line — and after a loss, bereavement support that continues for up to 13 months.
