Our team was proud to attend this year’s conference hosted by the Minnesota Network of Hospice & Palliative Care. The conference is an opportunity to learn, connect, and grow alongside others dedicated to compassionate care.

A special highlight: Kerry had the honor of meeting renowned author and palliative care physician Ira Byock. His work continues to shape meaningful conversations around end-of-life care and what it means to live well until the very end.

We’re grateful for opportunities like this that strengthen our mission and the care we provide every day.
