January 2014 Updates & Calendar  

Happy New Year from all of us!

The SECU CRYSTAL COAST HOSPICE HOUSE

is OPEN and ACCEPTING PATIENTS.

THE PATIENT INTAKE PHONE NUMBER IS

1-800-692-4442

compressed front

Since SECU Crystal Coast Hospice House opened in July, we have admitted over 80 patients and their families from all 5 counties of our anticipated service region and beyond. This is very impressive and almost unheard of for the first 6 months of a new hospice facility anywhere.  Having SECU CCHH has truly been a blessing to many patients and their families.

 

For more information about the levels of care and amenities of the hospice house, download our new informational brochure here.  If you have questions about who is eligible for hospice or whether it is the right time to seek hospice care for your loved one, please call our partner for patient care, 3HC, at 800-692-4442!

CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS!

February 5th at Noon - Train Depot, Morehead City
Volunteer Lunch and Meeting to kick off 2014!
 

 

We are so excited to ring in 2014 with so many wonderful volunteers, whether you are new or long-time veterans.  Without our volunteers' dedicated time and support, SECU CCHH would still be a dream.  THANK YOU for being a part of this special place.

 

Each one of you are so important to our beautiful hospice home and our new, continuing mission.  We are extremely grateful for all that you do and know we can't accomplish our goals without you. 

 

Our goal at this meeting is to have our lead volunteers in place for 2014 events and activities.  We also always have administrative work, mailings and office hours if that is of interest to you. Bennette will coordinate administrative volunteers.  Patti Schweis will also be there to tell us about volunteering in patient care & operations, so please join us for this important meeting!

 

Our volunteers continue to be the foundation of the SECU Crystal Coast Hospice House! We can't thank you enough for your dedicated support and time to this special place.

CCHH welcomes new Directors  - Dr. Terry Goodman, Kelly Harris, Curtis Hickman, Joe Logan, Kyra Moore & Jim Thompson.

 

The Board also elected Libby Eaton as Chair and Tommy Bennett as Vice Chair to serve one year terms in these positions.   Bennette Hopper was named to the position of Assistant Director to Robin Nelson, who has served as Executive Director since 2010.
