Santa Brings Joy to Pediatric Hospice Patient

Submitted by rgaltizer on

Thank you to our Pediatric Hospice Team for making this Christmas extra special for a patient. They arranged for Santa to visit the patient in his home, bringing joy to him and his family this holiday season. Krysta Smoot, pediatric hospice nurse, was there to support the patient and family during the visit and Jessie Palmer, hospice certified music therapist, also joined to play holiday tunes.

We are so grateful to our entire Hospice staff and team for their tireless work to bring meaning to the lives of patients and their families during some of their most difficult moments, especially during the holidays.
