Dr. Francis Martin, drew on his experiences as a mental health counselor, health care administrator, and a volunteer at Nashville's Alive Hospice in writing Hospice Mementos. The text offers firm and solid inspiration to those who serve hospice patients and their families. The message to them is, "Thank you for your loyalty and service to someone who is important to you."Hospice Mementos hopes to contribute to the well-being of all of you who serve home care and hospice patients and their families. Nurses, volunteers, home health aides, chaplains, social workers, physicians, administrators, support staff, and various therapists who care for patients will all draw strength from Dr. Martin's observations.
