This Spiritual Care Week, we’re proud to spotlight Dennis Felder, Hospice Chaplain at Hospice of the Chesapeake.

Chaplains play a vital role in caring for our patients and families, offering comfort, hope and a compassionate presence during life’s most vulnerable moments. Dennis says it best:

“You get to meet some wonderful people and to help them navigate and write the final chapters of their life here on earth and beyond.”

Thank you, Dennis, and thank you to our entire spiritual care team for the compassion and dignity you bring to every patient and family.

Hospice of the Chesapeake Foundation Executive Director Chris Wilson was honored to accept a check for $21,000 (!) from Luke, Lena and Ayden Said of Grand Oak Farm, the proceeds from the sale of Hoss the Hospice Hog at the Calvert County Fair Livestock Auction.

A heartfelt thank you to the Said Family for continuing this heartwarming tradition with so much loving care and generosity. Year after year, their support makes a real difference for patients and families across Calvert County.

Thank you also to everyone who supported the Calvert County Fair Livestock Auction and bid on Hoss! Every dollar raised benefits Hospice of the Chesapeake patients and families right here in Calvert County, while also supporting the incredible young people of Calvert County 4-H. 🌟

This year’s Spiritual Care Week theme, “Healing through presence and grace,” describes the heart of what our spiritual care providers, also known as chaplains, do every day at Hospice of the Chesapeake.

Our chaplains meet people exactly where they are, whatever their faith, beliefs or traditions, or even if they have none at all. Sometimes, healing comes through a prayer or a meaningful conversation. Sometimes it’s a favorite song, a shared memory or simply sitting quietly together. Through their presence, our chaplains help patients find peace and meaning. They help families feel supported through grief and difficult decisions. Through grace, they offer comfort without judgment, always.

To our chaplains: thank you for showing up with compassion, patience and open hearts. You remind patients and families that they are seen, valued and never alone. We are so grateful for you. 💙

At Hospice of the Chesapeake, we honor everyone touched by breast cancer: those in treatment, those living with advanced disease, survivors and the families who stand beside them.

Palliative care is not only for the end of life. It can begin at any stage of illness, alongside treatment, to ease pain, nausea, fatigue, anxiety and other symptoms, so patients can feel more like themselves.

When the focus shifts to comfort and quality of life, hospice care provides expert medical care, emotional and spiritual support and practical help, wherever someone calls home.

This year's theme for Breast Cancer Awareness Month is "Every story is unique. Every journey matters." No matter your story, no matter your journey, our team supports patients and families with expert medical care and counseling, caregiver education and bereavement care. No one should face this journey alone.

If you or someone you love is living with breast cancer, we’re here to talk, answer questions and help you understand your options. It all starts with a phone call. 1-877-462-1101. No commitment. Just answers.

Global awareness starts right here in our backyard.

Today is World Hospice & Palliative Care Day, and we’re sharing a glimpse of one of the important roles our Community Partnerships team performs: showing up where people are to talk about what hospice and palliative care really mean.

At the Prince George's County Annual Senior Picnic and Fitness Day, Winston Chapman and Charles Harris enjoyed connecting with seniors, answering questions, and sharing resources. Conversations like these help families understand their options and the support available to them, long before a crisis happens.

Our teams are always looking for opportunities to reach the people in the counties we serve. Whether it’s a picnic, a health fair, or a meeting, we’re happy to come to you and share our knowledge and expertise with the community we love.
