Parkinson’s Care Takes a Team 🤝

Parkinson’s doesn’t affect just one part of life - it affects everything.

That’s why hospice care is never just one person.
It’s a team, working together to support both the patient and the family.

At Humanitas Hospice, care includes:

👩‍⚕️ Nurses
Managing symptoms, monitoring changes, and keeping patients comfortable

🩺 Physicians
Overseeing care and guiding medical decisions with compassion and expertise

🤍 Social Workers
Helping families navigate emotions, decisions, and resources

🙏 Spiritual Care Coordinators
Providing support, meaning, and peace during difficult moments

🛏️ Hospice Aides
Helping with personal care and bringing dignity to daily routines

Because Parkinson’s care isn’t just physical.
It’s emotional. It’s personal. It’s human.

And no one should have to navigate it alone.

What Does a Hospice Social Worker Actually Do?

March is Social Work Month, and it’s the perfect time to talk about a part of hospice care many people don’t fully understand.

Hospice social workers help families through some of the most emotional moments of life.

They help with difficult conversations.
They guide families through decisions.
They support caregivers who feel overwhelmed.
They connect patients with resources.
They sit with people when words are hard to find.

Sometimes what families need most is not medical care.
It’s reassurance.
It’s understanding.
It’s someone who knows how to walk beside them.

That is what hospice social work delivers.

At Humanitas Hospice, our social worker is a steady presence for patients and families every day, helping bring comfort, clarity, and peace when it matters most.

💙 March is Social Worker Month- and we are so grateful for Shanita Scott, MSW 💙

At Humanitas Hospice, our work would not be the same without the compassion, strength, and dedication of our Social Worker, Shanita Scott, MSW.

Shanita brings calm into difficult moments, guidance when families feel overwhelmed, and steady support when decisions feel heavy. She walks beside our patients and families with patience, kindness, and a deep understanding of what people need most during some of life’s hardest times.

Whether she is helping a family navigate resources, offering emotional support, or simply sitting and listening, Shanita reminds us every day that hospice care is not only about medical care, it's about caring for the whole person, and the whole family.

We are so proud to have her as part of the Humanitas team, and we celebrate her this month for the incredible difference she makes in the lives of everyone she touches.

💙 Thank you, Shanita, for the heart you bring to this work every single day.

Hospice Myth of the Month

❌ MYTH: Choosing hospice means giving up.

✅ TRUTH: Choosing hospice means choosing comfort.
Choosing support.
Choosing quality time together.

It means managing pain so your loved one can rest.
It means having a team to call at any hour.
It means focusing on what matters most — being present, not being in and out of the hospital.

Hospice is not about giving up.
It’s about changing the goal from curing to caring.

And for many families, that changes everything. 💙

Caregiving is an act of love — and it’s hard on the heart.

The stress. The worry. The long nights.
So many caregivers push through without realizing how much they’re carrying.

Hospice care supports caregivers too, with guidance, emotional support, and help navigating what comes next.

Because when caregivers are supported, everyone feels the difference.

This Heart Health, Heart focused Month, we see you.

Love doesn’t always look like flowers and cards.

Sometimes, love looks like managing pain so someone can rest.
Sitting quietly when words feel too heavy.
Giving a caregiver permission to sleep through the night.

In hospice care, love shows up in small, steady ways — and those moments matter more than anything.

This February, we honor the quiet love that carries families through hard seasons.

February is Heart Health Month, and at Humanitas Hospice, we think about the heart a little differently.

Heart health isn’t just about numbers or monitors.
It’s about feeling safe.
Being heard.
Knowing you’re not alone.

When serious illness enters a family, emotional stress can weigh heavily on everyone. Hospice care supports not just the body, but the heart too — offering comfort, reassurance, and space to breathe.

This month, we’re honoring every kind of heart care.

A new year does not have to mean big changes. Sometimes it just means more support.

If your loved one is struggling with pain, fatigue, or frequent hospital visits, hospice can help bring calm back into daily life.

Care at home.
Support for the family.
Comfort for what matters most.

January is a beautiful time to ask questions and learn your options.
