When our Colleagues actively listen and respond to our patients, magic happens. When hospice social worker Claire Gisel learned that her patient never fulfilled her lifelong dream of seeing and touching the ocean, she got to work. Claire secured a four-day trip to Florida for the patient and her husband to stay at a hotel on the beach, dip her toes in the ocean and watch sunrises over the water. Thanks to Claire's compassionate attention, the patient and her husband were able to make priceless memories before the patient passed away. For that reason, Claire received the Commitment to Compassion Award at the 2023 MACademy Awards. Congratulations, Claire! #CommunityHealthcare

Imitate the practice. 🌱 In hospice care, we can learn a lot from Brené's approach. Creating a safe space for end-of-life discussions involves trust, openness, and a judgment-free zone. 🤗 1. Start with empathy – understand the unique journey of each patient and family. 2. Cultivate openness – encourage sharing feelings without fear of judgment. 3. Foster a supportive environment – ensure everyone feels heard and respected. The results will follow. 🌟 Join our community to normalize the conversation about end-of-life care. 💬 #EndOfLifeCare #HospiceSupport #CompassionateConversations #normalizingtheconversation
