Pine Tree Hospice, in collaboration with Eastern Area Agency on Aging and with funding from the United Way of Eastern Maine, is pleased to present a program on Compassionate Communication May 16th from 6 – 8 p.m. in Mayo Regional Hospital’s Resource Center.  This panel discussion will help answer the question, “What do I say when those I care about are faced with difficult life events?”  Panelists will discuss how to support a friend or family member who is seriously ill or dying when the natural human reaction is to feel uncomfortable.

This program is open to all community members who are interested in learning how to better communicate and support those with serious illness, bereavement, or other traumatic life events.

Dessert refreshments will be provided.
