Happy National Doctor's Day!

Today we are proud to recognize our hospice physicians for their leadership, compassion, and dedication to the patients and families we serve.

Dr. Brian Whyms, Medical Director
💬 “As a physician, one of the greatest inspirations in my work is caring for hospice patients and their families. Hospice care creates space for patients to take control of their care and define what truly matters most in their lives. Even during an uncertain phase, it helps make each day more manageable, meaningful, and even pleasant.
What moves me most is how hospice brings caregivers and families together around the patient. It creates a circle of support where compassion, presence, and understanding become just as important as medicine. This approach allows for more individual care and attention—meeting people where they are and honoring their goals, values, and dignity.
I’m deeply grateful that hospice services are available to anyone who needs them. It’s a reminder that all of us, at some point in life, may benefit from this kind of care, connection, and support. Knowing these resources exist for our communities is both comforting and inspiring.”

🤍 Dr. Tim Piearson, Assistant Medical Director

As we wrap up National Social Work Month, we want to take one more opportunity to say thank you.

To our Hospice Social Workers: thank you for the comfort you provide, the questions you answer, the guidance you offer, and the advocacy you demonstrate every single day.

You help families navigate complex decisions. You support patients during important life transitions. You connect people to the resources they need. And you do it all with compassion and heart.

While March may be coming to an end, the impact of our Social Workers continues all year long.

We are so grateful for everything you do for the patients and families we serve.

It’s meaningful that we can be there for people when they need us most.”
