Moments of Life
Family Spotlight
The Truesdell Family
For Kristi Warner, her grandmother, Sarah “Katie” Truesdell, was more than family. She was her rock. Lovingly known as “Gran,” Katie filled her family’s lives with warmth, resilience and plenty of love. She was celebrated for her home-cooked meals, sewing skills and joyful spirit. As Katie’s health declined, she needed more support than her family could provide. Kristi and her family turned to Genesis Hospice Care.
The Hospice Care team gave Kristi, her mother and the rest of their family peace of mind with in-home support and respite care at Morrison House. They looked after Katie and checked on the family, too. Kristi and her family will always remember the compassion her grandmother received.
“We all felt loved, supported and never alone,” said Kristi.
Family Spotlight
The Quinn Family
Each time the Quinn Family needed compassionate end-of-life care for their family members, they knew the right choice was Genesis Hospice Care.
Much of the care happened in the comfort of their family members’ home, and Hospice Care staff supported them with everything they and their loved ones needed, whether it was medical assistance, emotional and spiritual guidance or simply tips to help their loved ones be as comfortable as possible.
During their mother’s care, the stress and strain became a bit overwhelming, and Hospice Care assisted the family in bringing their mother to Morrison House for a few days for respite care. This enabled the caregivers in the family to get some much-needed rest. Their mother returned home to spend her remaining days right where she wanted to be.
