Finding Comfort Together
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 can be a challenging role – and most caregivers dive in to the new role with no training and little support. Held quarterly, Caregiver Academy covers different topics in a lunch and learn environment, encouraging you to be a confident, courageous and competent caregiver for your loved one. These free luncheons are taught by community experts and are open to anyone who provides care to a loved one.
