Hospice is about supporting people in their final life journey. Death is the closure to that journey. Mnay of our hospice patients will be elderly persons. Our culture is hard on the elderly. Our goal is to have a relationship with the community. Again, the understanding is that we're not alone during a time of grief, sickness, or a time of sadness.
Death disrupts families, friends, and during these life cycles we must learn how to cope with our losses by acquiring tools and skills to help us deal with each emotion that we are being challenged during this time.
