Emerald Coast Hospice

During National Home Care and Hospice Month, we recognize the compassionate care that clinicians provide to people facing serious and life-limiting illnesses. Their tireless dedication to patients and families is truly inspiring. If you have questions about the care services our teams provide, our nurses are available to answer them 24/7: 855-488-7026. 

During #spiritualcareweek, we'd like to acknowledge the vital role of chaplains, spiritual care counselors, and bereavement counselors in hospice care. Their important work helps people find meaning – and ways to move forward – during one of life's most difficult journeys. To learn more about how we can help you or your loved one through the complex emotional and spiritual issues that often come with a terminal illness, please visit: https://lnkd.in/e3C5fzk6.

The theme of this year’s National Case Management Week is Encouraging, Engaging, and Empowering. We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Case managers guide people through often challenging and complex health journeys. We are grateful for their wisdom, their compassion, and their commitment to the people in their communities.

Today, we invite you to join us in honoring and celebrating Native American peoples, their culture, history, and teachings. #indigenouspeoplesday

People often associate lung cancer with smoking, but 20% of people with lung cancer have never smoked. This #HealthyLungMonth is a great opportunity to make your lung health a priority. This includes getting regular exercise, seeing your doctor more often, minimizing your exposure to indoor and outdoor pollutants, and, of course, quitting smoking. To learn about lung cancer screening, please visit: https://lnkd.in/dStpRJC.
