Desert View Hospice, Inc. is more than just a healthcare provider—it’s a heartfelt mission born from personal experience and a desire to give back. The journey began with Kim Sampson, now the managing partner, whose father passed away on hospice in 2009. This profound loss inspired Kim to become a hospice volunteer, dedicating three years as an Angel Volunteer to support those without family during their final days. Her compassion and commitment grew into a passion for end-of-life care, especially for those who might otherwise face it alone.
Recognizing the need for exceptional hospice services in their community, Kim partnered with Shehzad Ahmed, a successful home health agency owner. Together, they combined their expertise and vision, officially founding Desert View Hospice in Victorville, California, in 2019. Their shared goal: to provide the best possible individualized care, prioritizing comfort and quality of life for every patient and family they serve.
