In the latest episode of The Golden Gang podcast, we welcome Jackie Christmas, a dedicated professional from Vitality Hospice who has been a valued partner to Arbor Terrace Mount Laurel!

She talks about the rewarding nature of the job, the delicate balance of providing care to both patients and their families, and how Vitality Hospice sets itself apart by offering a personalized and hands-on approach.
Throughout the conversation, Jackie emphasizes the importance of team coordination in hospice care, explaining how the collaboration between caregivers, families, and the hospice team ensures the best possible care for residents. She also shares the value of having a privately owned hospice company that focuses on compassionate care without the red tape of corporate bureaucracy.
