Christine Henry

CEO & Founder

Christine Henry (owner) is a Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. She began her career as an RN at Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital. While working there, she worked on various pediatric and adult units. She later became a Nurse Practitioner in 2005 and has been practicing since that time. She is married and has 3 wonderful children.

After her grandmother was in hospice and noticed that she was not receiving the care she needed, Christine decided to open a hospice, in hopes that no one would ever be treated the way her grandmother was.

Her goal is to make sure hospice patients receive the care they need and are not neglected. She believes hospice patients should be pain free and comfortable at such a vulnerable time. She believes hospice patients and their families should feel loved and cared for during the entire process.

Estelita Tun, MSW

Social Worker

Abby is a native of Belize. When two of her family members were diagnosed with terminal illnesses, she was in disbelief at the lack of support and hospice care available to families with terminal illnesses in third world countries. The emotional turmoil that her family experienced at seeing their loved one suffer became the driving force in becoming a hospice worker. Abby relocated to the United States where she pursued her master’s in social work at California State University of San Bernardino.

Abby decided to pursue her degree in medical social work to provide support for families facing the same challenges her family encountered as their loved one battles terminally illness. Abby believes that everyone, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, age or socioeconomic background, should have access to adequate medical care to facilitate their transition with dignity.
