20th Annual Hospice Taste of the Town
Hospice of the Piedmont is celebrating the 20th year of its annual Hospice Taste of the Town fundraiser. Mark your calendar now for Tuesday, August 19, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. for this very special event at Showplace in downtown High Point.

Care Connection, a division of Hospice of the Piedmont, provides home health care for individuals with life-threatening illness who need skilled care at home. For admission to the program, a patient of any age must be homebound and have a life-limiting illness that requires skilled nursing care. Some patients in Care Connection may be pursing aggressive, curative treatment; others are focusing on comfort measures only. Special emphasis is placed on the transition patients make when being discharged from a hospital. Care Connection is a highly cost-effective alternative to hospitalization, and reimbursement for care is received from Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance companies.
