After watching his mother-in-law on hospice and my dad with cancer he decided to leave his 20+ years in the corporate world to do something more meaningful. He and his wife made the decision to dedicate the next chapter of my life to providing hospice services to the community and building on the experience I had and improving upon it. “I see hospice as an extended family to support, guide and collaborate with patients at the center of it all.  Collaboration between family, case management, patient, and the hospice team with a single objective to ensure comfort care for the patient is the true objective of hospice that we live every day. I can honestly say that the gratification and pride I get when supporting our families, managing our team of dedicated nurses, chaplains, social workers, aids and even doctors, and seeing their passion, I am proud of the decision I made to transition from the corporate world to hospice services.” Kash Mahmood _________________________________________________________________ Contact Kim Hegwood- Elder Law Attorney Website: https://hegwoodgroup.com Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/HegwoodLaw LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/company/hegwoodlaw/ YouTube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-ZaoTAWChvaz-HEFQcdcbQ
