November is National Homecare and Hospice Month, and we’re proud to celebrate the caregivers, nurses, therapists, and support staff who bring compassionate care directly into the homes of those who need it most.

Every day, our team at COHME helps patients maintain their independence, dignity, and quality of life – right where they feel most comfortable: at home.

This month, we honor:

👉 The dedicated caregivers who go above and beyond for patients and families.

👉 The families who trust us to be part of their care journey.
