For Mr. Healy, joy is a freshly cut lawn! After sharing his wish to mow the grass with his zero-turn mower one more time this year, our hospice care team listened, made a plan and helped him safely get back in the driver's seat.

What a special reminder that meaningful care starts with understanding what matters most to each patient!

(FYI for those wondering, the mower was turned off for the photo. The only thing in motion was a great big smile 😄)
