Home Care That Supports
Your Patients and Their Families
For hospice and palliative care teams across San Diego County. Cognihealth provides compassionate companion and personal care that complements your clinical services, supports family caregivers, and ensures your patients are never without the help they need at home.
How We Work Together
Three Ways Cognihealth Supports Hospice and Palliative Care Teams
Hospice and palliative care teams manage the clinical and emotional complexity of end-of-life care. Cognihealth handles the daily home care needs that fall outside your scope, so your team can focus on what only you can do.
Companion and Personal Care Between Visits
When your team is not present, a Cognihealth caregiver is. We provide consistent daily support — including companionship and personal care — so patients are never without help between your clinical visits.
Family Caregiver Relief
Family members providing round-the-clock care become exhausted. Our respite care gives family caregivers the breaks they need to sustain their own wellbeing throughout the journey.
Overnight and 24-Hour Support
For patients who cannot safely be alone overnight, we provide overnight care and 24-hour live-in care that works alongside your hospice plan.
