Who they are

Reliance Hospice and Palliative Care was established in 2016 and specializes in providing compassionate, quality care to patients facing life-limiting illnesses in the settings where they reside.

More about Reliance Hospice

The organization is accredited by the Joint Commission to provide both hospice and palliative care services. While its main office is located in Cerritos, CA, the organization serves patients across Los Angeles County, Orange County, and Riverside/San Bernardino County, including a Palm Desert, CA location. The organization serves a broad geographic region across Southern California. Nurses at Reliance Hospice work as part of an interdisciplinary team providing end-of-life and palliative care in patients' homes and residential settings. The RN Admissions Nurse role, for example, involves evaluating pre-admission information, conducting onsite discussions with patients and families, determining appropriateness of services, and managing all aspects of the admission process for new patients. The work is field-based and requires strong clinical assessment skills, compassionate communication, and the ability to work autonomously while collaborating with a broader care team.

Mission: To provide compassionate, quality care with respect and comfort to patients and their families. Vision: To deliver and make accessible, state-of-the-art quality driven hospice and palliative care to all. The organization emphasizes commitment, quality, and excellence, and values a dynamic interdisciplinary team approach centered on patient needs.
