In this time of social distancing, isolation, and uncertainty, being together,
especially for emotional support during times of loss, is certainly a challenge.

Hospice of Rockingham County is offering an opportunity to connect with others in similar situations. Free and open to the community, online meetings will be held on Wednesdays at 11:00am and 7:00pm via virtual meetings (using Zoom).

on how the grieving process is being impacted by our current situation.

You may join via video, phone, or both. For more information or to register,

Hospice & COVID-19

As we are all aware, the COVID-19 situation is ever-changing and Hospice of Rockingham County is taking all precautionary measures possible to ensure the safety of our patients, families, volunteers, and staff.

Because we are all suffering from information overload and because some means are more reliable than others, we recommend you obtain information through trustworthy sources. For example:

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC)

The World Health Organization (WHO)

US Department of Health & Human Services (HHS)

North Carolina Department of Health & Human Services (NCDHHS)

Due to rapid increase of COVID-19 cases in our area, Hospice of Rockingham County has updated visitor access to our Hospice Home again to immediate family only, only 2 people in a patient’s room at a time,  and only during the following times:

• 9:00am – 9:30am
• 1:00pm – 1:30pm
• 6:00pm – 6:30pm

Immediate family members who want to visit will be met at the front door to be screened for symptoms, including having their temperature taken. Visitors will then be given a mask they must wear for the duration of their 30-minute visit.

Leadership agonized over increased restrictions and we regret this step has become necessary. With the rise in cases in the area, we must do everything possible to keep everyone safe. The well-being of our patients and their families and our staff and their families is our highest priority.

We ask for your continued understanding in this ever-changing situation.
