It started with a worn garden flag—and became a reminder that her service still mattered. At 91, Elouise—a Korean War nurse—knows what service means. Empath Hospice of Marion County volunteer Dexter Vance visited her for a special Veteran-to-Veteran pinning. While he was there, he noticed the small weathered American flag in her garden. Dexter returned just days later with a full-sized American flag and carefully mounted it outside Elouise’s home. This Fourth of July, we celebrate stories like Elouise’s and the volunteers like Dexter who make sure every veteran feels honored. Empath Health’s veteran program and affiliation with We Honor Veterans brings compassion, connection, and dignity to veterans at the end of life. Let’s honor their service. Let’s tell their stories.

The day was filled with meaning, from quiet moments of reflection to real connection and care. 🌼Through guided meditation, journaling, and creative self-care, attendees were provided a place to rest, reflect, and reconnect with support and with each other.This retreat reminded us just how important it is to care for those who care for others. We’re so grateful to everyone who could join us. ... See MoreSee Less

When care is personal, it moves you. At our Empath LIFE center in Hillsborough County, a quiet moment turned joyful when our team played “My Girl” for a participant who loves Motown. She got up and danced. That is the power of connected care—when someone truly knows you. Hospice News recently featured how Empath LIFE, our PACE program, reflects our Full Life Care approach. Watch the moment and read the full article in the link in our comments. ... See MoreSee Less
