Connection Moment with Edo Banach of NHPCO, Ep.18

Edo Banach of NHPCO spends his days supporting hospice agencies in the U.S. Today he reminds us this season of uncertainty and isolation will pass, with better times ahead for the end of life industry. Edo believes hospice teams shine in times like this.  We’re built for care of patients and families when grief and hurt seem overwhelming.  He also acknowledges the post traumatic stress issues that healthcare workers are facing, and will continue to experience in the future.  Hospice professionals know what that’s like - it’s what we do on a daily basis.  Edo reminds end of life teams of their strengths, and encourages us to look past this time to a future when we’re all connected again.  Your agency can become a member of the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization to access their numerous resources.  Just visit nhpco.org for membership information and current hospice news.  You’ll also find resources there for patients and families to use.  Need more information about hospice?  The Heart of Hospice is here 24/7 to help.  Visit our website at theheartofhospice.com.  No matter who you are - hospice provider, patient, family member -  we’re here to help.  You are The Heart of Hospice.
