About the Beneficiary:
Proceeds from the 2022 Home Health & Hospice Gala will benefit the many programs we offer to our community, ranging over 51 towns, within Coos and Grafton county and beyond. Each year we are able to provide clinical care to approximately 1,800 patients within their home, offering therapeutic support and rehabilitation programs. Studies have proven that the home health model is effective in promoting a healing environment at a fraction of the cost of an institutional setting and with less risk of infection. Similarly, we provide an annual average of 300 hospice patients with transitional support within the comfort of their own home, on their terms with their loved ones. Our staff work to provide comfort & pain support, advance directives & end of life planning, as well as spiritual and bereavement guidance. We introduced a new Palliative care program in 2019, which has been extremely successful! This program was created to fill the gap in support for individuals living with chronic, serious, or life limiting illnesses. Our providers and social workers work together to offer an added layer of support to these patients and assist with healthcare navigation, pain support, and care planning.
Thanks to your support and commitment to our agency we are able to continue to grow our programs, in particular our Palliative Care program. These funds help cover out of pocket costs that our agency incurs for medications and supplies for our Hospice patients, they bridge the gap in reimbursement in our Long Term Care program and allows us to cover the costs for staff certifications for Home Health, Hospice and Palliative Care.
