HEADLINES & HIGHLIGHTS
HRC Expands Employee Benefits Hospice of Rockingham County utilized feedback from their employee engagement survey and four “generational meetings” (leadership met with each distinct generation of employees) to enrich its employee benefit package. Among the new benefits are an employee tuition reimbursement program, extended bereavement leave, gym membership reimbursement, AllyHealth (free virtual medical and behavioral health coverage available to all employees and their family members from day one of employment), increase in retirement match (based on years of service), and two additional paid holidays. CEO Lynn Flanagan said, “We now employee team members that belong to four distinct generations. So, the care and support for our team cannot be cookie-cutter care. We strive to be very intentional in the way we listen to our team members and provide a sense of well-being that is important to them individually.”
2022-2023 Proves to be Banner Year for Fundraisers HRC has always been blessed with strong community support and this past fiscal year was no exception. LifeLight, Friends of Hospice, the online auction, and the volunteers’ LifeWalk 2023 raised nearly $50,000. LifeWalk raised more money and garnered more sponsors than any in recent memory.
The funds raised by these events help offset the cost of uninsured and underinsured patient care. HRC provided 224 days of care to patients having no insurance and many more days of care to patients who insurance did not adequately cover the cost of care.
Board members Micky Silvers and Dr. Candace Bradley were all smiles for LifeWalk 2023.
HRC Staff Donates Dress-down Dollars On Fridays, HRC staff members have the option of donating $1.00 in order to wear jeans to work. Recently, staff donated $200 in “Dress- down” money to The Dancing Goat DME. The Dancing Goat DME collects used medical equipment and donates it to whomever needs equipment. HRC has worked with Kathy on several occasions and was proud to support the good work she does in our community.
