Hospice Services at Primrose

Two People Holding Hands We are often asked about hospice care by patients as well as family members. When you contact us, we provide the following information in addition to answering any other questions you may have:

Every resident is entitled to hospice care under Medicare.
Hospice care includes grief counseling for our patients and their family members, extra supervision, administration of medication, and comfort measures.
Primrose staff assists with all necessary medications and healthcare supplies to ease the burden, allowing families to focus on their loved one.

We understand that each family has its own sensitivities and that the delicate nature of dealing with a life-limiting condition can sometimes be a difficult situation. We are here, whenever you need us. At Primrose those who receive hospice or palliative care are encouraged to continue interactions and activities with other residents and join in other special programs and services we offer whenever possible.

What Is Hospice?

Hospice offers care and support for the emotional, social, and spiritual well-being of residents and their families in end-of-life situations.

Hospice care and palliative care services provided through programs from local resources such as St. Joseph’s Health, Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital, and Heartland Hospice augment the care provided by Primrose staff. These hospitals offer a wide range of specialty services to meet your loved ones needs.

These hospice programs are part of our commitment to deliver compassionate, expert care, offer peace of mind, and provide comfort to our residents with a life-limiting condition, as well as support for their family members. Our work at Primrose in conjunction with these hospice programs helps our residents and their families express what they need and create memories that will last beyond their time at Primrose.

Should you have additional questions, we are just a phone call away at 707-578-8360.

“The incredible staff at Primrose found ways to cater to his needs, and let his personality flourish”

“I wholeheartedly recommend Primrose to any family looking for a warm, safe and supportive home for their family member in need. My dad had Alzheimer’s Disease, and lived at Primrose for the last 5 years of his life. One of the things that I appreciated and respected most about Primrose was how their care for my dad changed as his disease evolved. My dad entered Primrose in a high functioning state, and the incredible staff at Primrose found ways to cater to his needs, and let his personality flourish. As my dad’s condition declined, the staff at Primrose kept him engaged, and went above and beyond to let him continue to do the things that he loved, even though his ability to do them was strained. The grace, compassion, and love that the Primrose staff showed my dad all the way until his last day was so special, and they helped my dad live out his last days in dignity and comfort. This compassionate care for their residents starts with the owner, is brought to life by the management, and extends to each member of their amazing staff. I feel very fortunate to have found Primrose, and I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a supportive home for their loved one.”
