Central Coast VNA & Hospice is expanding its home health care services to better support the evolving healthcare needs of Monterey County residents. With a 74-year legacy of compassionate care, the organization is introducing enhanced specialized programs designed to provide comprehensive, personalized medical support. The expanded services include specialized offerings such as Advance Care Planning, which helps individuals and families navigate critical healthcare decisions, and a Palliative Care Program focused on improving quality of life for patients with serious illnesses. The organization will also provide customized specialty care programs for patients with chronic conditions and comprehensive home health services including skilled nursing and physical therapy.
According to CEO Jane Russo, these expanded services directly respond to increasing community healthcare demands. The California Department of Public Health has highlighted that community-based care options significantly improve patient satisfaction and medical outcomes, particularly for aging populations and those managing complex medical conditions. The organization's service area includes Monterey, Salinas, Hollister, Santa Cruz, and surrounding regions. By offering home-based healthcare solutions, Central Coast VNA & Hospice aims to promote patient dignity and independence while providing expert medical support. The expanded programs reflect a strategic approach to addressing local healthcare challenges, ensuring residents can receive high-quality, personalized care within the comfort of their own homes.
