Episode 112: Hospice Care: Making Empowered Decisions, with Dana Reed

This week Gin and Sheri are joined by Dana Reed, a hospice outreach manager. She has spent the past 13 years working in home healthcare and as a hospice advocate. In today’s episode, Dana shares her knowledge with us so that if we ever find ourselves in a position where we need to make a decision to call hospice for a loved one, we are better informed to make the right choice for our situation.  She also tells us what to expect and how to ask for the support we need throughout the process, as we advocate for our loved one.     Join our VIP community and help support the podcast!  Go to https://www.lifelessonscommunity.com/VIP and become a member today.  We can’t wait to connect with you there.    Resources used for today’s podcast can be found here:  https://www.wbrc.com/video/2022/12/22/gardendale-teen-who-walks-work-surprised-with-new-car/?fbclid=IwAR2EoAoDWWEAu0ygNbB4h3rjxjX2VnmGSGAR0Ed_6z7VA7BnZqdI1SE4Mk0     Today’s podcast was made possible through our affiliation with the following company.
