Education is the key to good hospice care.  Patients and families that understand dying process do better... it's that simple.  But teaching every patient and every family member takes time... lots of time.

The answer to this dilemma is to give patients and families something they can read that provides the understanding they need so desperately... something comprehensive yet succinct... in-depth yet easily understood.

Crossing The Creek

fills this need.

Written by a hospice nurse as a comprehensive teaching tool, Crossing The Creek is invaluable.  The price of a book ($15 bulk rate) is half (or less) than one hour of call-out time for an RN... and it will save your agency much more than just that.

No nurse on this planet is capable of explaining all the information in Crossing The Creek in half an hour... nor can your agency afford to keep her in the patient's home day & night as a handy resource for patients & families. 

But that is exactly what Crossing The Creek does.

You simply cannot afford to not provide every patient/family with their own copy of Crossing The Creek.  In the long run, it saves you money

Your patient/families will thank you for it.

Tight budget?

Ask your volunteer department to purchase some copies. 

You will be glad you did.

Crossing The Creek was the first and is still the best Guide To Understanding Dying Process.  No other book, booklet or handout works as well.

Try it... you'll love it!
