Hospice of the Piedmont Celebrates 30 Years
Always offering more than is required, Hospice of the Piedmont has provided compassionate care for more than 16,000 patients since its founding in 1980. Expert staff and volunteers empower the patient and their loved ones, relieving pain and enhancing the quality of the patient’s life, while providing for the practical, emotional and spiritual needs of the entire family. A series of events and initiatives have been planned from January through December 2010 to celebrate this milestone, and to educate and inform the community about the quality programs and services Hospice of the Piedmont offers. Businesses and individuals interested in supporting Hospice of the Piedmont’s 30th Anniversary events can sponsor a program.
