Our licensed clinical social workers provide crucial support to patients and families — helping navigate the emotional, financial, and practical challenges that arise during end-of-life care.
Social workers meet with patients and families to assess needs, provide counseling, connect families with community resources, assist with advance directives and end-of-life planning, and help resolve conflicts or communication challenges within the family and care team.
All services are provided at no cost under the Medicare and Medi-Cal hospice benefit. Serene Hospice never denies care based on ability to pay.

Guidance on completing advance directives, POLST forms, and other important end-of-life documents.
Connecting families with financial assistance, community programs, and support services.
Facilitating family meetings and helping align care goals among patients, families, and the care team.
Our team is here to answer your questions and help determine if hospice is right for your loved one.
