Community Events

Navigating the loss of a loved one can often feel overwhelming and isolating. Hospice of Davidson County hosts year-round events supporting and recognizing caregivers, families, and individuals as they navigate the end-of-life journey. Our community engagement events provide an opportunity for fellowship, growth, and awareness for anyone navigating, supporting or processing a hospice journey.

Caregiver Academy

Caregiving is a challenging role that is draining and often under-appreciated. Most caregivers have to dive in with no training and little support. Held quarterly, different topics are covered in a lunch and learn environment, so you can be a confident, courageous and competent caregiver for your loved one. These free luncheons are taught by community experts and are open to those who provide care to their family members.

Registration is required. To register, call 336-242-2290 or click here to email.

 

In-Person Support Group

We offer monthly in-person support group on the 1st Wednesday of every month from 2-3pm.  Sessions are limited to 8 participants and registration is required.

This group is open to any member of the community as well as the loved ones of patients under our care. Grief Counselor Emily Sullivan leads the monthly conversation addressing topics relevant for the needs of the group.
