Southeast Texas Hospice News
Introduction to the Harbor Foundation
Today on Southeast Texas Senior News, we look at one of the nonprofit agencies dedicated to senior care, The Harbor Foundation based right here in Beaumont Tx.
Southeast Texas senior citizens are fortunate to be served by a number of wonderful national and local non-profit organizations and charitable foundations.
In some case, Southeast Texas seniors often hear a foundation’s name, but we’re not sure exactly what they do- who do they serve, what services do they provide the Golden Triangle senior community?
This is an introduction to Southeast Texas’ own Harbor Foundation.
Harbor Foundation was established in 2006 to assist with providing hospice education to the community serviced by all Harbor Hospice locations.
Harbor Foundation is a non-profit organization trained to provide vital services and programs for SETX senior citizens that make a difference in real people’s lives.
Hospice care in Southeast Texas affirms life and regards dying as a normal process.
It is a concept of caring and offers a comprehensive program to Southeast Texas hospice patients and their families who are facing a life threatening illness.
Hospice care in The Golden Triangle emphasizes palliative (pain management) rather than curative treatment; quality rather than quantity of life.
There are more than 12 diseases or co-morbidities that qualify for Southeast Texas hospice care provided by medical professionals.
Southeast Texas hospice care professionals are trained to be sensitive and responsive to the special needs of each individual and family.
Each year, the Harbor Foundation provides seminars, information, and support to Southeast Texans in need.
If you or a loved one would like more information about Southeast Texas Hospice Care, please contact the Harbor Foundation or Harbor Hospice in Beaumont Tx with any questions, for additional information, or to request a consultation.
Harbor Hospice Mission
Harbor Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for patients with life-limiting illnesses by raising funds to provide services for the indigent, provide education to patients, their families and the community, assist bereaved family members and such other charitable acts as may be approved by the Board of Directors.
Harbor Foundation is funded through:
- Individual Contributors. Individuals graciously make memorial or personal donations to the foundation which allows the Harbor Foundation to promote hospice education.
