Myths & Mocktails with Care Initiatives Hospice! Yesterday, we had the pleasure of welcoming Care Initiatives Hospice to Bickford of Cedar Falls for a special Myths & Mocktails event! Residents and families gathered to enjoy mocktails while learning more about hospice care. It was a wonderful opportunity to ask questions, clear up common myths and misconceptions, and gain a better understanding of the many services and support hospice provides. A special THANK YOU to Stacy from Care Initiatives Hospice for taking the time to share her knowledge with us! Stacy was very informative, helpful, and made everyone feel comfortable asking questions. We truly appreciate the opportunity to educate our residents and families about the resources available to them. Knowledge is power, and understanding hospice care can make such a difference! #BickfordOfCedarFalls #CareInitiativesHospice #MythsAndMocktails #HospiceEducation #BickfordFamily #LearningTogether
