Also, tickets are available at the Hospice of Jefferson County Office, located at 425 Washington Street in Watertown. When It's Needed Most. The month will serve as a vehicle for Hospice of Jefferson County and the Hospice Foundation of Jefferson County to reinforce, support, and advance the public engagement campaign in our community, on end of life care issues. The National theme for this year's Hospice Month revolves around a quilt. This theme is based on the intertwining themes of hospice care and quilt making.
Hospice care serves a functional purpose for care at the end of life.
And does this in a beautiful way, allowing friends and family to surround the dying loved one, just like quilt makers are surrounded by their friends and family when they were sewing a quilt. Quilts, like Hospice Care, wrap us in love and remind us how precious life is. Each quilt is as individual as the people who made it, and for whom it was made. Hospice care is individualized to the needs of the patient. No two patients are treated in exactly the same way.
