Ecumen Home Care & Hospice Gearing up For a Busy Summer

Ecumen of Litchfield Home Care and Hospice is gearing up for a busy summer with Watercade coming in Litchfield in July and the Meeker County Fair in August. The organization will be out and about getting the word out about the services it provides.

Trina Driver says if anyone needs end-of-life care, they should get enrolled as soon as possible. She says Hospice can be a scary word, but it doesn’t have to be.

Driver says they really need volunteers as their numbers dwindled during the pandemic, and the training is fast-tracked and self-paced, and you can do as little or as much as you want from spending time with clients or working in the office. She says they can always use donations too.

Driver says they have decided to make their Dinner & Auction fundraiser an every other year event so they will not have one this fall, and the Lights of Love event which is always held in Darwin right after Thanksgiving, will also be held in Litchfield this year.
