Community Outreach - Speakers Bureau

Hospice of the Piedmont's Speakers Bureau
was created to tell you our story of comfort, compassion, and hospice care, as well as to inform the community of the services and educational programs we have to offer.  The most often heard comment we receive from patients and family members who have experienced Hospice of the Piedmont's care is... 
  "if only we had known about Hospice sooner."   Our desire is that everyone who needs us will benefit from our services when the time is right.

In addition to educating the public about our hospice care program and services, we also share our experience in areas such as recognizing the complexity of being a caregiver, dealing with hard choices, coping with grief and loss issues, and the joys of being a volunteer.

Members of our speakers bureau provide presentations and educational training on various topics throughout our nine county service area free of charge.  All presentations are made by qualified staff and volunteers.  Topics include, but are not limited to:


Hospice of the Piedmont:  Overview and Services
Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Hospice Care But Were Afraid to Ask!
The Hospice Medicare Benefit:  "How Do I Pay for Hospice?"
Planning for the Future:  Advance Directives
Exploring Death & Dying
Hard Choices:  Decisions in End-of-Life Care
Children's Grief
Grief, Loss & Bereavement:  Coping with Loss
Being a Hospice Volunteer
The Spirituality Challenge of Hospice Care
Pain Management & Symptom Control
Issues in Caregiving
Journeys Bereavement Program for Children

We would also be happy to design a presentation to meet the individual needs of your group.
