Celebrate National Home Care Month National Hospice Month National Home Care Aide Week (Nov. 9–15) this November!

Each year, NAHC proudly sponsors November as National Home Care Month, National Hospice Month, and National Home Health Aide Week. November is the perfect time to educate the media and the public about the value of home-delivered health care. This year's themes are:

Home Care: Where the Healing Begins

Hospice: Great Care At Last

Home Care Aides: We're Part of the Family





NAHC has put together a valuable set of materials to help you recognize staff, patients, and families and to celebrate home care and hospice.

Halamandaris' video message for an update on the latest happenings in Washington and the importance of continuing the fight.
