ORGANIZATION: Dignity Hospice

  • 7 people are interested

Hospice Sanctuary has dementia patients located in the west valley in Goodyear and Avondale who would so benefit from some human interaction. Though they can no longer hold a conversation, they still benefit from one sided communication, either by being talked to or read to. The effects nurses have noted from patients being read to includes better vital sign reports, more smiling, or even bettered communication.
