Happy World Occupational Therapy Day! The theme for this year is, “Occupational Therapy for All.” The theme reflects the important role of the profession in facilitating the ability of individuals, communities, and populations to participate in the activities that they want, need, or are expected to do in their daily lives. Occupational therapy is a vital part of hospice. This form of therapy is used to help those recovering from physical or mental illnesses. We work to encourage rehabilitation to help with certain activities that are necessary for daily life. OTs play a crucial role in the hospice care team. They help identify significant life roles and activities that provide some meaning to patients. They’ll talk to the patient to find out what they want to accomplish and what’s most important to them. They also consider the available support systems and resources they may have to achieve those goals. Thank you, Occupational Therapist, for all the hard work that you do each day!

During Spiritual Care Week, we celebrate the chaplains who serve not only as spiritual guides but also as counselors, listeners, and compassionate companions. Their roles extend far beyond religious care, as they wear many hats to provide support wherever it’s needed most. Meet our newest Chaplain for Heritage Hospice, Emily. She has had the privilege of working in hospice before and is thrilled to be transitioning into this company. She says, “I always knew that I wanted to work in hospice after having experienced end of life with my Grandad when I was just a young girl. I couldn't have been more than 7 years old but would spend hours each day at his bedside and remember feeling like something special and truly meaningful was happening in those final days. As I have grown up, collecting education and a variety of experiences, I have witnessed time and time again just how sacred the end of life can be and what a privilege it is to be invited into that time with the families we serve to participate with their faith traditions and spiritual practices. Life is so beautifully unique and sometimes we don't fully realize that until we face the reality of our limited days. I continue to learn so much about faith and spiritual experience through hospice care and will be forever grateful for the patients who allow me to join them on their journey.” #SpiritualCareWeek #MoreThanReligion #ManyHatsOfCare #OurCareFamily

This week we want to take the time to celebrate and educate you for Spiritual Care Week! Spiritual care can be a wide range of different cultures and religions. The theme this year is “Chaplains Beyond Religious Roles.” These colleagues wear so many different hats and our team would be incomplete without our Chaplains. Help us show them some love this week! #OurCareFamily #SpiritualCareWeek #ChaplainsBeyondReligiousRoles

Today we want to remind you to schedule your mammograms. Did you know that a mammogram can often detect a problem before there is any outward physical sign? All women over 40 years old are recommended to have a mammogram yearly for preventative measures. #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #PreventativeCare #WomenHealth #KnowYourRisk #ScheduleYourMammogram #BreastCancerAwareness #ScreeningSavesLives

Harvest the season’s best opportunities! We are looking for new colleagues to join our patch. Visit https://lnkd.in/eZ43hrci

Heritage Hospice is dedicated to offering support, education, guidance, and resources for patients receiving hospice and palliative care, as well as their families and the broader community. In 2024, we are celebrating a decade since the World Health Assembly (WHO's Governing Body) adopted its unique resolution on palliative care. This resolution urged all nations to enhance palliative care services as part of holistic care across all stages of life. We share with you some comparisons between Hospice and Palliative care: - Hospice is for terminal patients with 6 months or less to live. - Palliative care is for any stage of serious illness, alongside curative treatments. - Both focus on comfort, pain management, and quality of life. - Hospice care is often at home; palliative care can be in hospitals or clinics. - Both involve a multidisciplinary care team. - Hospice is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most insurance plans; palliative care varies. #WHPCDay24 #10YearsOn #Hospice #PalliativeCare
