The collaboration between hospice, assisted living communitiesand residents and their families is an essential part of the end-of-life journey for residents faced with serious, life-limiting illness. When an assisted living community serves as the person’s residence, hospice services are seamlessly integrated into that setting, ensuring the same level of interdisciplinary support, symptom management and psychosocial care as would be provided in a private home.

Kathy Boylan, Hospice Liaison, has a hospice heart like no one else. That is why she was awarded with being the Chairman's Club winner for 2024. Also, in her 10-year career with Amedisys she has achieved the 2,500 milestone in the Legacy Club. That means she has brought the gift of hospice to 2,500 patients and families! Today, she gave all her credit to her incredible team that she has the pleasure of working with every day. Kathy always lights up the room whenever she walks in. Whether she is making jokes, forgetting where she puts her keys or her phone always ringing, if you ever needed Kathy, she would drop everything to help you. And that's just the kind of person everyone needs in their life and we are so grateful to be part of yours. Congratulations Kathy 💚

On Thursday January 18th, Amedisys Hospice of Bedford NH was able to help make a dream come true for one incredibly special patient Susan C from Londonderry. Susan had mentioned to her hospice social worker how much she loved the Bruins and she had always wished to go with her significant other Kevin. Very quickly this seemingly unrealistic wish became a reality due to the generosity of the community, 4 tickets and Legends passes were donated by CGI Business Solutions, Axis Transportation provided round trip transportation to and from the game and driver Zack was so gracious, The Bruins Foundation and Bob Sweeney made a point to provide Susan and Kevin with Bruins Swag, a visit from Bob Sweeney himself and Blades who stole the show and Susan’s heart. This experience was more than we could have ever imagined, and we are incredibly grateful for the love shown. Susan did pass 10 days later peacefully at home with Kevin by her side. Life is precious, thank you everyone for the support. 🖤💛

There are so many ways to volunteers! Check out our list ⬇️ for just SOME of the ways you can make a difference ❤️

Direct with Patients:
✨Patient Visiting: Reading, writing cards out or interviewing if patient is still able to communicate, playing a card game, taking patient for a walk around a facility when appropriate, Reminiscing Activities, Massaging/Holding hands, Calm presence.
✨Respite Sitting: Benefits the Patient and caregiver so they may get out to run errands, work, or rest.
✨Vigil Team: If new to hospice and after some time visiting with patients, you might feel comfortable to sit with someone on their last days. This is very personal, intimate time to be with a person. If you are someone that can be available in a pinch, this also factors into participating as vigils, by nature, pop-up and the need is immediate.
✨Pet Therapy: Volunteers who have pet therapy certified animals are always invited to speak further to the coordinator about potential assignments.

DIRECT WITH FAMILIES:
✨Bereavement Support: Companionship/Phone calls to bereaved, Support Groups

INDIRECT WITH OUR OFFICE:
✨Administrative Support: Making admission packets, Assisting Bereavement Coordinator in needs, Assisting Volunteer Coordinator in needs, Etc.
