At , we greatly respect and appreciate our community of hospice caregivers.
This includes hospice professionals, physicians, nurses, chaplains, social workers, CNAs, healthcare administrative professionals, volunteers, or anyone else that is an important caregiver in our community.
To recognize these dedicated people for their selfless devotion and generosity of heart, we have created our
“Hospice Caregiver Award” program.
We will honor a caregiver based upon a review of nominations received from peers, friends, patients, and their families,
or others who feel a particular person excels in their profession. We will honor one outstanding hospice caregiver
each quarter with a gift. Please see below for previous award recipients.
