Personal and Supportive Hospice Care in The Bay Area

Hospice care is about comfort, dignity, and support during a time when clear guidance and compassionate care matter most. Grace and Glory Hospice provides nurse-led hospice care in the Bay area, designed to support quality of life while offering steady, respectful support for both patients and families.

Our hospice services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and are 100% covered by Medicare and Medi-Cal for eligible patients.

Understanding Hospice Care

Hospice care focuses on comfort-centered support for individuals with advanced illness, while also caring for the emotional, practical, and spiritual needs of those who love them. The goal is not to cure illness, but to support comfort, dignity, and peace of mind.

At Grace and Glory Hospice, hospice care is guided by the patient’s values, preferences, and goals. We take time to listen, explain options clearly, and create a care plan that feels respectful and personal.

Hospice care can be provided wherever the patient feels most comfortable, including at home or another appropriate setting.

Who Hospice Care Is For

Hospice care may be appropriate when an illness is no longer responding to curative treatment and the focus has shifted toward comfort, dignity, and quality of life. Many families begin exploring hospice when care needs increase and they want additional guidance, support, and consistency.

Hospice care supports:

  • Individuals living with advanced or life-limiting illness
  • Patients who choose comfort-focused care rather than aggressive treatment
  • Families and caregivers who need guidance, education, and emotional support
  • Loved ones who want reliable, responsive care day and night

Hospice care is not about giving up. It is about receiving the right kind of support at the right time. With hospice, you gain a dedicated team focused on comfort, relief from symptoms, and walking alongside you and your family with compassion and experience.

Nurse-Led, Compassionate Care

Grace and Glory Hospice is a nurse-led, locally owned hospice. Our care is guided by experienced clinical leadership, ensuring that decisions are thoughtful, responsive, and grounded in experience.

Being nurse-led means:

  • Care decisions are clinically informed
  • Families receive clear, practical guidance
  • Questions are addressed promptly and respectfully
  • Care remains patient-centered, not process-driven

Families also have direct access to leadership, providing an added level of trust and accountability.

Our team is here to:

  • Answer questions in plain language
  • Help caregivers feel more confident
  • Provide emotional and spiritual support
  • Offer guidance during transitions
  • Be available when concerns arise

What Patients Are Saying About Us

Grace and Glory Hospice is a wonderful, family-owned hospice company. One of the owners, Jane, is a nurse who has spent many years working in senior care. Her deep understanding of what families experience during such emotional times shines through in everything she does. For example, Jane often answers the phone herself. She takes the time to listen, reassure, and guide families personally. That kind of individual care and accessibility is rare in this field!

The Grace and Glory team reflects that same spirit of compassion and excellence. Tekia’s warm presence makes families feel deeply supported and held, even in the most difficult moments. She has a gift for bringing calm and comfort wherever she goes. Kati, their social worker, is also compassionate and knowledgable.

Grace and Glory also educates families and community partners about hospice, palliative care, and how to navigate this stage of life with dignity and grace.

Our shared client received truly exceptional care from this team and their communication the whole way through was great. Thank you for providing such exceptional, personal, and heartfelt care to those in their final season of life! We are grateful for the work you do.

My grandmother was 95 years old when she began to use hospice services. She was keen on her own independence and it was important to her that she got to remain comfortable at home, and be able to continue do the things she wanted to do.

Our hospice team made our home feel peaceful, and allowed us to focus on spending quality time together. We especially wanted to give thanks to Mayra, Tania, and Isabella, who helped us greatly and were always just a call or message away, and to the whole team who helped us all hold together through our fear and grief.

We were surprised by how much our hospice staff would do for us, and the supplies and physical support they gave us. We weren't ready to lose her, but they made it a time where we could be together without the stress of day to day care needs. We could plan together, and it was easier to keep her safe, comfortable, and free from pain. If you are thinking about hospice services, don't hesitate to reach out to Grace and Glory.

I think that my letter to Jane, the owner of Grace and Glory, speaks for itself...
"Dear Jane,
I'm taking some time to thank Grace and Glory, and you specifically, for the care, support and love shown my wife and me since we came aboard.

The caregivers and nurses who come into our home demonstrate a passion for providing not only the medical care we need but, equally important - caring, love and, when needed, emotional support. I must heap special credit and praise for M***, D***** and, of course, L*** who are with us routinely and whom we've come to see as family. L*** recommended Grace and Glory to us and helped us transfer from another agency, a competent organization but focused primarily on their bottom line profitability lacking your grace and compassion.

Literally, everyone we have encountered with Grace and Glory has been professional, competent in their skills, knowledgeable and compassionate for D******'s condition. Sometimes, we've needed special help for an urgent situation, and help was always at hand - from your doctors, to your phone assistance late at night, to the on-call nurses who came to our home. Their commitment to HELP was ever present.

Its apparent to us that the excellence in Grace and Glory comes "from the top," and that is where this note comes full circle in thanking you specifically. You certainly named your company well!
