Emmanuel Hospice's CEO, Sara Lowe, was featured on a segment of Rotary Club of Grand Rapids' recent podcast!

For Shanee, a perfect day meant spending time with the people who have stood by her side throughout her journey.

Through Emmanuel Hospice’s patient wish program, Shay was able to enjoy a special day centered around friendship, fun and some of her favorite things — including seeing her friend Marley perform downtown, sharing lunch with her close-knit group of friends, and ending the day with a private screening of the sequel to her all-time favorite movie, The Devil Wears Prada at Celebration Cinema North.

When Shay and her entourage arrived at the theater, they were surprised to learn a private screening was reserved for them, complete with popcorn, drinks and other concessions to their hearts’ content. It was the perfect end to a relaxing day with loved ones.

We’re so grateful to Celebration Cinema and the staff at Celebration North for helping make this memorable experience possible, and to Bloom Credit Union, sponsor of Emmanuel Hospice’s patient wish program, for supporting meaningful moments like these for the patients and families we serve.

This Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

We are deeply grateful for their courage, sacrifice, and commitment, and we recognize the lasting impact they have made on their families, communities, and our nation. As we gather with loved ones this weekend, we encourage everyone to take a moment of reflection in their honor.

May we never forget their service and the freedom it helps preserve.

One of the most common questions we hear is: “How can I pay for hospice?”

The answer may surprise you. Hospice care is typically covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, or other benefits, so there is often no direct cost to patients and their families.

At Emmanuel Hospice, we do the work for you, helping determine eligibility, navigating coverage options, and bringing compassionate care wherever you call home.

If you or a loved one may benefit from additional support, we're here to answer your questions and guide you through every step.

This Nurses Week, we pause to recognize the extraordinary professionals who define the heart of Emmanuel Hospice.

Our nurses bring clinical excellence, compassion, and dignity into some of life’s most profound moments. They guide patients and families with steadiness and grace, ensuring comfort, honoring choices, and offering reassurance when it is needed most. Their work extends far beyond care delivery - it is a commitment to presence, empathy, and respect for every individual journey.

At Emmanuel Hospice, we see every day how our nurses elevate the standard of care and embody our mission in action. Their dedication strengthens families, uplifts colleagues, and leaves a lasting impact on our community.

To each of our nurses: thank you for your expertise, your resilience, and the humanity you bring to your work. We are deeply grateful.

Our community often asks what makes someone eligible for hospice.

What kinds of diseases and conditions can we support? When is it the right time?

Our May article is a short and helpful resource that gives an overview of what hospice is really like today.
➡️https://emmanuelhospice.org/2026/04/hospice-care-eligibility-and-timing-its-more-than-you-may-think/

Starting hospice earlier can ease the growing demands of caregiving on both practical and emotional levels. But Patient Access Specialist for Emmanuel Hospice, Elizabeth, wants families to know that "a call to learn more doesn’t equate to a commitment, and you can always change your mind." Learning about hospice before it’s urgently needed can reduce stress and bring greater peace of mind.

We're ready to help, and we're here to answer your questions.

Another wish fulfilled, and this one had been close to Judy's heart for a long time. 🦁

Judy is 82, a former nurse of 30 years, a world traveler, a maker of beloved pies, and a devoted mom and grandma. Years ago, she and her husband, Donald, tried to see The Lion King together in Ontario but couldn't get seats. The wish stayed with her.

When she mentioned it to her Emmanuel Hospice social worker after seeing an ad for the show, her care team made it happen.

She took her seat at DeVos Performance Hall, with her son Kent and his wife Colleen at her side.

A night at the theatre is one thing. A night like this is a reminder that joy, wonder, and new memories are possible at every stage of life.

Judy, you deserve every moment of it.

Thank you to Bloom Credit Union for their ongoing support of our Patient Wishes Program, and to Broadway Grand Rapids for this unique donation and for making this night possible.
