Last Friday night, Gold Country Health Center had the privilege of supporting Hospice of Amador & Calaveras at their Annual Art Auction — a heartwarming evening celebrating art, community, and compassionate care.
This event held special meaning for our team. Our Administrator, Doug Hawkins, was invited to speak on behalf of his late father, whom he lost earlier this year to ALS. Doug shared his personal experience with Hospice of Amador & Calaveras, expressing deep gratitude for the incredible care and compassion they provided throughout his father’s journey. It was an emotional and powerful reminder of why the work we all do matters — and Doug was honored to speak about the profound impact hospice care had on his family.
Gold Country Health Center and Hospice of Amador & Calaveras share a truly unique and valued partnership. Together, we walk alongside individuals and families during some of life’s most challenging moments — ensuring comfort, dignity, and support every step of the way. Whether it’s through skilled nursing, emotional care, or end-of-life services, our shared mission is rooted in compassion and community.
We are proud to stand beside Hospice of Amador & Calaveras — not just as partners in care, but as part of a larger community that believes in showing up for one another when it matters most.
To everyone who made the art auction such a meaningful success: thank you. And to Hospice of Amador & Calaveras — thank you for all you do.
