Our Decatur team had a wonderful time connecting with community members at the Illinois State Fair! 🎡

Representing The Care Team were Sandy Hockman, Samantha Palmer, and Janie Rider, Community Care Liaisons from our Decatur branch. The team shared information about our hospice and palliative care services while engaging with veterans, seniors, and their families.
