Winter Nurses Appeal Update
Winter Nurses Appeal Update
To make sure people get the support they need, our nurses jump in the car every single day to visit people in their homes all over Hawke’s Bay.
“Often the perception is that Hospice is a house of death. It’s actually not. We’re genuinely about living every moment and the patient’s quality of life. Yes, that will translate into the quality of dying but it’s about the living. We’re focused on helping you live.
Patients talk to us about their fears. It’s the scary difficult conversations, we pull it out and show the patients this is what we can do, and it doesn’t have to be scary.
It’s about meeting the patient where they are, where they want to be, and where they want to stay.
Where they want to be is where the support needs to be.”
Our recent Winter Nurse Appeal asked for donations to so our team can help patients and their families through the most vulnerable time of their lives. With your help this Appeal raised over $60,000 – thank you! This money has gone directly towards helping fund our nurses.
