Cooper (6) and Gator (16) have grown up in the same home since they were puppies and both have incredibly sweet, gentle temperaments.

Gator, the senior, enjoys a slower pace—he’s happiest relaxing, moseying around, and simply being in a calm, peaceful environment where he can enjoy his golden years. Cooper is more playful and affectionate, loving walks, cuddles, and spending time with his people.

Both are great with kids and would make wonderful companions in a loving home—whether together or separately—each bringing their own kind of comfort and personality. To learn more or adopt, message us at htaylor@hospicebr.org

Mental health is an essential part of every hospice journey, especially during terminal illness and end-of-life care.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re recognizing the emotional weight that patients and families carry, and the importance of compassionate, whole-person support.

You are not alone in what you’re feeling—and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

April is Volunteer Appreciation Month 💙

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible Camp Conquer volunteers.

Camp Conquer provides grief support for children and teens who have experienced the loss of a loved one—and your dedication makes this meaningful work possible. Over the past year, volunteers have given more than 1,500 hours to camp and grief support events—leading activities, offering encouragement, and creating moments of connection and joy for every camper.

Because of you, young people feel seen, supported, and empowered as they navigate their grief. We are deeply grateful for the compassion, energy, and care you bring to every child and teen you serve. ✨

🩺 Today is National Healthcare Decisions Day, which serves as an important reminder to talk about your healthcare wishes before a medical crisis occurs.

Advance care planning gives individuals the opportunity to share their values, preferences, and goals—helping families and care teams honor those choices with clarity, comfort, and confidence.

At Hospice of Baton Rouge, we encourage compassionate conversations around advance directives and end-of-life care so that every individual’s wishes are known and respected.
Because when your voice is heard in your care, families find peace and guidance when it matters most.

April is Volunteer Appreciation Month

We’re so grateful for our Butterfly Wing volunteers! Last year, you dedicated over 1,200 hours greeting visitors with a smile, assisting our nursing staff, and ensuring patients feel cared for.

Every small act—checking in, helping with tasks, or simply offering a friendly presence—makes a huge difference for our staff, patients, and families.

Your warmth and kindness brighten every day and every room you enter.

A Sunday reset can mean something different when you are navigating grief or caring for someone you love. It may not be about productivity or preparing for the week ahead—it may simply be about allowing yourself a moment to pause.

If today feels heavy, give yourself permission to step back. Rest when you can, release what can wait, and make space for quiet reflection or connection.

At Hospice of Baton Rouge, we understand the emotional and physical weight that caregiving and loss can bring into every day, including Sundays. Support is here, and you do not have to carry it alone.

April is Volunteer Appreciation Month 💙

Patient companionship is at the heart of our programs, and our volunteers bring it to life every day. Whether through conversation, shared activities, a listening ear, or just a comforting presence, you create meaningful connections—64 patients benefited from your companionship last year alone.

Your support also gives caregivers much-needed time to rest and recharge, making an impact that reaches beyond the patient.

Sometimes the most powerful care is simply being there—and that’s exactly what you do. Thank you for your compassion and dedication!
