🌿 Understanding PTSD in Hospice Care 🌿

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) affects many individuals, including some of our brave veterans and those who have experienced traumatic events. In hospice care, it's important to recognize and support patients who may be dealing with PTSD.

For those facing end-of-life care, PTSD can bring unique challenges. Memories of trauma may resurface, and feelings of fear or anxiety can be heightened. Our team is here to provide compassionate care, understanding, and support to patients and families navigating these difficult emotions.

Let's work together to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and offer support to those living with PTSD. Together, we can create a more empathetic and understanding community for all.

💖 Celebrating Love and Compassion 💖

On National Loving Day, we reflect on the power of love and compassion in hospice care. Love is at the heart of everything we do, guiding us as we provide comfort, support, and dignity to our patients and their families.

In hospice, love is more than a feeling—it's a commitment to being there for each other, to holding space for difficult conversations, and to cherishing every moment together.

Today, we honor the love that surrounds us, the love that drives us, and the love that sustains us. Thank you to our patients, families, caregivers, and staff for showing us the true meaning of love every day.

❄🏠Here comes chillier weather! Winter is no joke, especially for our beloved elderly family members who may feel the cold a tad more than us. So, how can we make our homes winter-ready for them? Check this out!⤵️

1️⃣Heat things up🔥: Make sure your heating system works efficiently. Consider investing in a smart thermostat for easy temperature adjustments. Drafty windows or doors? Seal them up!

3️⃣ Non-Slip Solutions🚫👣: Use non-slip mats in icy areas, grab bars in the bathroom, and ensure carpets and rugs are secured to prevent any nasty falls.

4️⃣Stock Up🥫: Always have enough food, water, and medical supplies on hand in case of a snow-in.

5️⃣Emergency Plans🆘: Create an emergency plan for bad weather situations. Make sure it’s easily accessible and everyone is familiar with it.

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day from all of us at Resolutions Hospice Austin!

Today, we commemorate the inspirational life and enduring legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His unwavering dedication to civil rights, equality, and nonviolent resistance continues to inspire us. His powerful words remind us of the importance of unity, compassion, and standing up for what's right.

In honor of this day, we encourage all of you to reflect on Dr. King's profound messages of love, tolerance, and justice. Let's celebrate this day with joy, remembering that each of us has the power to make a difference, just as Dr. King did.

Remember, "The time is always right to do what is right." Let’s strive to uphold Dr. King’s vision in our daily lives, not just today, but every day.
