Medical Director

Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care
Independence, OH Full Time
POSTED ON 4/30/2024

Life is better with compassion!

Patients and families near the end of life should have a caregiver committed to the art, science, and skill of delivering compassion.

Death is a meaningful experience for patients and loved ones. We only have one chance to get it right.

Delivering compassion the right way is not easy; it takes skill, heart, commitment and structure to do it well.

We believe the effort is worth the challenge because nobody should die alone.

Organizations can do more, and this industry can be better. Crossroads exists because compassion should not be a transaction.
