In hospice, it takes a special kind of heart to do what you do. Our CNAs are more than caregivers; they're comfort-givers, hand-holders, memory-makers, and creators of moments of peace. Whether it's a warm blanket, a kind word, or simply being present in someone's final journey, your compassion is felt deeply. This week, we honor your strength, your gentleness, and your unwavering dedication to dignity at the end of life. Thank you for being the heart of hospice
