Today, we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the brave first responders who risked everything to save others. On this anniversary, we offer our prayers for those affected by the tragedy and for continued healing and peace for all.

This week is Palliative Care Week, and the theme, “You, Me, and Palliative Care,” highlights how palliative care can affect our lives in different ways. It’s not just about end-of-life care; it’s about providing relief, comfort, and support to those facing serious illness. Misunderstandings about palliative care can prevent families from seeking the help their loved ones need. That’s why this week is a chance to spread awareness and ensure everyone understands the valuable role palliative care can play. If you are a family member of a current ArchCare resident and have questions about palliative care for your loved one, join us online for an informative session on Wednesday, October 9th, to learn what palliative care is, the different levels of care, and how to navigate the referral process.
