Welcome to the newest member of the Gentiva team. Meet Ms Hazel Lyles. This is her why for hospice. "I work for hospice because I have so much compassion to give. It is my calling to provide comfort and care. I think it is so important that while people are in an emotional state, I can be that person whom they can feel comfortable with to cry to, laugh with, or just need a hug. I know how it feels to be the person who lost someone, and it feels like you're left alone. So that is my why, I choose hospice because of the love and compassion I can give!"
