Trinity Health Home Health and Hospice hosted an Evening of Remembrance, offering support and comfort to families of hospice patients. This special gathering allowed loved ones to honor and cherish the memories of those who passed.
The entire hospice interdisciplinary team, which includes the hospice director, provider, registered nurse, chaplain, aide and social worker, closely engage with families during periods of uncertainty and sorrow. The team fosters strong relationships with families, offering essential emotional, mental and spiritual support. However, once the patient passes, the consistent contact can end abruptly. This event served as an opportunity for families and the team to reconnect, reflect and reminisce.

As the families gathered to share memories together and support each other at an Evening of Remembrance, they created memorial ornaments of their loved ones. Trinity Health’s Pastoral Care team spoke to the group as well, and there were resources provided for those in need.
The Evening of Remembrance provided a meaningful and compassionate space for families to honor their loved ones. Through the creation of memorial ornaments, the sharing of memories and the support of one another, those present found comfort and healing in a difficult time. This heartfelt gathering served as a reminder of the enduring love and cherished memories that live on even after a loved one has passed.
