Maureen would provide respite for caregivers to be able to go to the store or take care of their own medical needs. In addition, patients benefited from companionship and end-of-life emotional support.
Maureen is one of the founders of the “Take My Hand” Bereavement Support Group sponsored by Amedisys.
Maureen currently participates in the memorial service and is one of the facilitators of the three support groups that meet monthly. She has volunteered countless hours comforting bereaved families. It takes a special person to volunteer for hospice and do it consistently for 25 years. Thank you, Maureen!
