New Year, New Opportunities
2013 was another banner year for Compassion Hospice – besides helping a growing number of Southeast Texans during this important time, we provided >$150,000 in free care to the area’s needy, grew the number of Southeast Texans employed by Compassion Hospice by 50%, AND had a great color run fundraiser featuring Southeast Texas’ own Kree Harrison, all while focusing on providing a world-class hospice experience for our friends, families and loved ones. 2014 promises to be even better as we move into new facilities to accommodate our growing team – look for construction to begin soon on Eastex Freeway next to Cathedral In the Pines. We’ll be adding sister companies to extend our compassionate caring services…
Happy Birthday!

Bereavement Groups – 2012
We at Compassion Hospice know what it’s like to experience the pain associated with the loss of a loved one. Our goal is to meet you where you are in your grief process. Whether it’s a recent loss or one that happened many years ago, we want you to know that you are not alone. FREE and OPEN to the public, our groups are led by a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Professional Counselor, both with many years of grief counseling experience. We meet on the last Wednesday of each month from 12pm-1pm at our office, located at 2528 Calder in Beaumont. Upcoming meetings will be held as follows: Wednesday, January…
Volunteers
We are always looking for volunteers to help with various duties at Compassion Hospice. Being a volunteer means that you give of your time in order to help others in need. Volunteer activities range from sitting with patients for shorts amount of time to allow the caregiver to have a break, making things such as baked goods or sewing, offering to clean the home of some of our patients who may need additional assistance with day to day chores, answering phones, or simply helping with fundraisers and other community activities. If you are interested and feel like being a volunteer for Compassion Hospice is a good fit for you, please call Melanie Ayres…
Upcoming Holiday Activities
We’ll be at the Barnes and Nobles on Dowlen Road for the next several Friday afternoons with a few other local nonprofit organizations assisting with wrapping gifts and sharing Christmas spirit – if you’re in the area and doing some holiday shopping, stop by and visit with us! We’ve scheduled our annual memorial service and Tree of Lights Celebration for Thursday evening December 16th – we’ll begin gathering at 5pm and celebrate the lives of our patients and the Tree of Lights from 5:30-6:30. Stay tuned for more information! 🙂 Below is a couple of our favorite images from the recent Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk 2010, be sure and check our Facebook page…
