In celebration of National Nursing Assistant Week, June 16 – 22, Care Dimensions, the largest hospice and palliative care provider to adults and children in Massachusetts, recognizes hospice aide Marie Dessouvre of Bedford for outstanding, compassionate care provided to her patients at end of life.

“Our hospice aides are the women and men who live our mission every day to provide gentle, compassionate care and companionship to our patients,” said Care Dimensions President and CEO Stephanie Patel, MD, MBA, FAAHPM, HMDC. “They remind us, so eloquently in their daily deeds, that the secret to the care of patients is caring for patients. While they’re bathing, dressing, and providing personal care to patients, they’re also talking and listening to stories, laughing, and singing with patients. Our hospice aides are loved by patients and their families for the tender loving care they provide.”
