Impact Story - We Support our Veterans!

Did you know that HPCF supports Veterans receiving hospice services through our Need and Assistance Program? In 2019, we have provided assistance in the form of rent payments, utility bill payments, home improvements, supplements and food, clothing, and other critical needs not met through insurance. One patient that received support in the form of a lift chair shared that the chair has allowed him to stand and reach his walker more easily, and has greatly improved his quality of life. He told us that he has experienced a lot less pain since getting the chair, and has increased mobility, which has greatly improved his quality of life.
