CENTRAL COAST, CA, February 05, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Central Coast VNA & Hospice, a trusted leader in home health and hospice care for over 70 years, is proud to announce the expansion of its comprehensive hospice and support programs throughout the Central Coast. This initiative enhances services such as bereavement and grief counseling, advanced care planning, and common misperception education about hospice, ensuring that individuals and families receive the resources they need during life's most challenging moments.

Hospice care is often misunderstood, leading to hesitation in seeking the benefits it offers. Central Coast VNA & Hospice is committed to addressing these common misperceptions by providing educational programs designed to help families make informed decisions about end-of-life care. In addition, the organization offers bereavement and grief counseling to support loved ones before, during, and after a loss, helping them navigate their emotional journey.

Another vital service is advanced care planning, which empowers individuals to document their healthcare preferences before they become necessary. Through personalized consultations, patients and their families can explore care options and make decisions that align with their values and wishes.

"Our mission is to ensure that our community members have access to the knowledge, support, and resources they need," said Jane Russo, Director of Central Coast VNA & Hospice. "By expanding our hospice services along with grief support, hospice education, and advanced care planning, we are fostering a culture of informed decision-making and compassionate care."
