Hospice-Related Resources

Speakers 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. It is our hope that the more people we can reach in the community to share about the comfort and care we can offer, the less frequently we will hear the phrase, “If only we had known about you sooner.”

If your group has openings on its program calendar, we would be happy to fill one of those slots. We can share our story wherever and whenever your group meets.  If your group wants a change pace from your regular 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.

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:

  • “Hospice 101” (a general overview of Hospice services)
  • Gibson House
  • Advance directives
  • Grief and loss in the workplace
  • Volunteer opportunities
  • Coping with grief and the holidays

If you would like to schedule a Hospice speaker, please call the Hospice office at (336) 427-9022 to set up a presentation.

Additionally, if your business, senior center, church, or civic group is organizing a health fair or outreach event, HRC would appreciate the opportunity 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.

On-line Resources

The sites listed below may be helpful in providing information about end-of-life planning and hospice care, information to those acting as caregivers, and support and suggestions for those grieving a loss. If you are seeking information and are unable to locate it through any of these sites, please feel free to call the Hospice office at (336) 427-9022.
