Posted by Charity Watcher on Tuesday, January 20, 2015
It’s never easy to give comfort amidst pain, suffering and grief. Since 1990, nonetheless, the Hospice of the Comforter Foundation and its members find the strength, mercy and compassion to do so.
The Hospice of the Comforter has provided and continues to provide compassionate care for incurably or terminally ill patients as well as their families and caregivers. The foundation focuses on addressing the physical and psychological, even the spiritual, needs of its recipients as well as providing for expert pain management techniques.
In its pain management program, the staff members and their healthcare partners provide patients with the tools essential in making the final days of their lives more comfortable and meaningful. Its grief support for the family members, both children and adults, has been instrumental in dealing with the grief that comes with the various end-of-life issues that affect both parties.
Indeed, the foundation is committed toward changing the lives of its patients and their families in meaningful ways that others may be unable to provide for various reasons. The services are provided for all patients who apply at the foundation regardless of their eligibility for medical insurance (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid).
The Hospice of the Comforter Foundation serves patients in the counties of Orange, Seminole, and Osceola. It has served over 28,000 patients and counting, thus, earning the foundation the respect and trust of the communities where its presence is felt.
As a non-profit entity, the Hospice of the Comforter Foundation largely relies on the generosity of its donors and contributors. All of the gifts, donations and contributions received by the foundation are directed to the program that the donors indicate, thus, ensuring that these are maximized.
Donors can choose to provide assistance to the following areas, namely: Bereavement Care (grief support services); Horizons Children's Loss Program (Camp Healing Heart for grieving children); Comforter Care Program (24-hour temporary patient and caregiver care); and Hospice House (16-be in-patient facility), among others.
