There is no charge or obligation to use SimplyNaya.
Start with the location where care is needed.
The person searching may live nearby or be helping from another city. The care location determines which local hospice connection and Medicare-certified provider information are most relevant.
After you contact us, request a private, time-limited link to providers serving the care location.

Planning a transition home
Questions to ask when care needs change.
Families may begin exploring hospice after a conversation with a clinician, during a hospital discharge or when support needs increase at home or in assisted living. Familiar local hospitals may include Sarasota Memorial Hospital, Sarasota Memorial Hospital–Venice, Manatee Memorial Hospital and Lakewood Ranch Medical Center.
Hospital names are included only to help families recognize the area. SimplyNaya does not claim an affiliation with these organizations.
- Families may be managing care from another state, so confirm the Florida address where visits, medications and equipment will be needed.
- Ask whether the hospice regularly serves the specific assisted living, memory care or independent living community involved.
- Clarify how after-hours nursing support works across Sarasota, Manatee and southern Sarasota County communities.
Common questions in Sarasota
Clear answers before you make a decision.
Can hospice support someone living in a Sarasota-area senior living community?
Hospice may provide eligible clinical and comfort-focused services where a person lives, including some assisted living communities. The community must still be able to meet the resident’s needs and comply with its own licensing requirements.
Can an adult child arrange an initial hospice conversation from outside Florida?
A family member can ask questions and help coordinate, but the person receiving care or their authorized decision-maker remains central to informed choice, eligibility and provider selection.
Finding the right local area
Recognizable places can help explain where care is needed.
Families may describe the care location using familiar places such as Downtown Sarasota, Sarasota Bay, Bradenton Riverwalk, Lakewood Ranch or Venice Island. A care ZIP is still the most reliable way to identify the appropriate local connection.
Provider eligibility and service-area information should be confirmed directly with the hospice and through Medicare Care Compare. Local content reviewed September 2026.
Provider information by request
Your options remain private and complete.
After contacting SimplyNaya, families can request a time-limited link to eligible Medicare-certified hospice providers serving the care location. Paid partner placement never removes other eligible providers.
