Speaker's Bureau

Hospice of Rockingham County, Inc. welcomes the opportunity to speak to your church circles, men's or women's clubs, and civic groups.  We are always trying to get the word out about our services so that we can help those in need.  If your group has openings on its program calendar, we would be happy to fill one of those slots.  We will be happy to make our presentation wherever your group meets or your group is welcome to meet in our Hospice Home community room for a presentation and facility tour.  Whether your club meets early in the morning, at lunch time, or in the evening, or you need a program ranging from 10 to 25 minutes, we can tailor a presentation on a variety of end-of-life topics, examples of which include:

1. "Hospice 101" (a general overview of Hospice services)
2. Our Hospice Home
3. Advance directives
4. Grief and loss in the workplace
5. Volunteer opportunities
6. Coping with grief and the holidays

If you would like to schedule a Hospice speaker, please call Flavel Collins, Community Relations & Development Coordinator, at (336) 427-9022 or email her at fchospice@triadbiz.rr.com to set up a presentation.

If your business, senior center, church, or civic group is organizing a health fair, HRC would be more than happy to provide an information booth for your event.  Please call us so we may participate and support your efforts to inform the community as to available resources in and around Rockingham County.

If your group wants a change of venue and would like to meet in our community room for a presentation and then take a tour of our Hospice Home, we would be more than happy to accommodate this.  Simply call the HRC office to make arrangements.
