At Cole and Garrett Funeral Home, our family and teams have a profound amount of respect and appreciation for hospice caregivers. This includes physicians, nurses, chaplains, social workers, CNAs, administrative professionals, volunteers, and anyone else who offers hospice care in our community.
We understand the emotional challenges and many of the other strains that come with your positions. Knowing how hard you all work and in times what difficult conditions, we have adopted a program entitled The Hospice Caregiver Award Program. We want to recognize these dedicated people who don’t just do their jobs, rather they go above and beyond, whether in putting extra time or the way that the manage patients and their families with a high level of compassion and kindness.
With this in mind, each month, we will honor a caregiver who has been nominated by peers, friends, patients, and families, and others who feel this particular person excels in her or his profession. One caregiver each month will receive an award and gift card. At the conclusion of each years there will also be a banquet honoring the 12 finalists. A review committee will select a Caregiver of the Year who will be awarded a special gift.
Please use the form below to nominate a caregiver you think deserves to be recognized for their contribution. Help us not let the heroes of our community go unsung and let them know the difference they make in the lives around them.
