As the week draws to an end, we want to take a moment to recognize that this week is National Hospital Week. Our hospitals and health systems – as well as the dedicated health care professionals who work there – are a crucial part of our communities. This past year has proven the lengths they will go to in order to ensure we are safe and healthy. And, now more than ever, we owe it to them to show our gratitude for all they do.
Thank you to all of the health care professionals and hospital workers out there! You have put in incredibly long hours and had to witness countless moments of heartbreak throughout the pandemic. You’ve offered a hand to hold in final moments when loved ones could not be there. You’ve been a source of hope and strength throughout this past year, and we are truly inspired by you!
In honor of National Hospital Week, the American Hospital Association partnered with Musicians on Call to write a song about hospital workers’ experiences in the past year. Check it out here!
Joint Commission-accredited hospices are the partner of choice throughout the care continuum because of their deep abiding commitment to quality end-of-life care. Apreva Hospice is one of the few hospices in San Diego County with this distinct and honorable title. An accreditation from Joint Commission shows dedication to the optimum patient experience, commitment to strong interdisciplinary care management, and a robust patient safety initiative.
