Emanate Health Hospice (EHH), formerly known as Hospice of the East San Gabriel
Valley, was founded by community leaders in 1979 and is one of the only free-standing
hospices in the United States. The Hospice complex was built and is supported through
private and community donations. Hospice provides care to all types of patients, age
groups and diagnoses meeting the criteria for admission. It has an extensive home care
program as well as 10 inpatient beds. Associated with Hospice, Emanate Health Home
Care provides physician-supervised skilled nursing care to individuals recovering at home from accidents, surgery or illness.
