Giving Thanks! By Rebecca Sink – Volunteer Services Manager, Trellis Supportive Care If you know a Trellis Supportive Care volunteer, you know somebody special. They give freely of their time, talents, and kindness to support patients and families facing the physical and emotional challenges of a life limiting illness. They also provide tremendous support to our team as we work to carry out our mission. That’s why it gives us great pleasure to share our heartfelt gratitude with each and every volunteer who is a part of our trellis; our framework of support.

Trellis Supportive Care, along with other national, state, and community organizations, is leading a massive effort to highlight the importance of advance care decision-making – an effort that has culminated in the formal designation of April 16th as National Healthcare Decisions Day (NHDD) and Healthcare Decisions Day in North Carolina.

Since our inception in 1979, Trellis Supportive Care (formerly Hospice & Palliative CareCenter) has grown to meet community needs and has benefitted from generous supporters and advocates. In a year that has seen more than its share of challenges, we have experienced extraordinary community support, and our team has been unwavering in our commitment to provide care, every day, to nearly 575 patients and families throughout our region. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we adopted the motto - COVID Can’t Stop Compassion.
