Letter from the CEO
​
Dear Friends of Hospice and Home Care of the Blue Ridge,
Since composing the last sharing letter after Hurricane Helene, time has quickly past, and we find ourselves just now taking time to reflect on the past months!
Helene brought with her so much……and still we continue to recover and rebuild! Hospice and Home Care of the Blue Ridge (HHCBR) is truly touched by the outpouring of support from the communities we serve as well as those from outside our service areas of care.
HHCBR strived to assure no lapse or even a slight pause in operations, especially related to patient and client care in our programming. We have been so fortunate to be able to continue with our mission of care! So many things have been impacted by Helene, from our beautiful mountain landscapes to our course of action each time it storms. HHCBR has been diligent to ensure the impact of Helene only strengthened our mission of care, support to our communities, and those we serve in those communities.
HHCBR was able to continue with full re- accreditation through the Accreditation Commission of Home Care (ACHC) in February of 2025. The staff of HHCBR is fully devoted to those we serve. Our staff are also Helene survivors and understand the lasting impact Helene will have on us! We also continue to develop support for those still impacted by Helene. Relationships with our communities and providers have strengthened, and we continue to look toward seeing beyond Helene.
Again, HHCBR extends heart-felt thanks to everyone that has and continues to support our mission of care, and we are forever grateful for that continued support!
Sincerely,
Christina Jenkins,
HHCBR CEO
