Description

Our 3-part series on hidden gem resources continues as we sit down with Leslie Katz, Director of Patient Services at the Jewish Hospice and Chaplaincy Network (JHCN). After we share Joanna's wonderful experience with JHCH, Leslie shines a light on their crucial non-medical support for seniors with life-limiting illnesses. She dispels common misconceptions by showing how broad hospice care can be, and how seniors without a hospice designation can still enjoy JHCN's services. The discussion covers everything from managing anticipatory grief to the vital role of social work, spiritual care, and unique life enrichment services like art, music and pet visits. Leslie illuminates their wide-ranging mission and how community donations sustain their essential support for patients and families.
