Our Belief & Philosophy: At Ardent Hospice & Palliative Care, we believe that every patient is more than his or her disease; ... rather the disease is just one part of what affects his or her life and environment. We evaluate and care for each patient holistically—taking into account his or her entire life, the psychosocial aspect, emotions, and family. We work diligently and tirelessly to ensure our patients are able to carry on in the setting that is most comfortable for them. Ardent is committed to supporting patients regardless of economic or financial status. Ardent Hospice & Palliative Care is accredited by The Community Health Accreditation Program (CHAP) and is licensed and certified by Medicare in the State of California. Our Mission: Our patients and their loved ones are the center of our work. When curative treatments have become ineffective, Ardent Hospice delivers peace of mind with a mission to relieve pain and suffering. Our team of professionals has a passion for providing superior, thoughtful care at the end of life, and works around the clock to improve the quality of life for our patients, their loved ones, and caregivers by creating an atmosphere of acceptance and respect for all. We go beyond simply administering pain medication and treatment to keep patients comfortable; we focus on each individual as a complete being, providing care to his or her family as well. Our mission is to connect and collaborate with every patient and family and support them in every decision. read more
