Hospice is well accepted at Kalaupapa


[Lindberg:]
Is hospice acceptable down here?
[Brady:]
Yes. As a matter of fact, we’re very fortunate to have a director of nursing who is highly committed to end-of-life care and also care that’s palliative in addition to end-of-life. So we actually have her going later this month to a conference in San Antonio. We’ve had hospice workers from Queens and the Kuakini University system come in and talk with our nurses here. We have two nurses that have come from a background just of hospice that complement our nine nurses down here.
[Lindberg:]
Gee, that’s wonderful.
[Brady:]
Yeah.
[Lindberg:]
Of course, St. Christopher’s is where it all began isn’t it?
[Brady:]
Right, right.
