Dear Staff of Jockey Club Home for Hospice,
In 2018, both my mother and father were diagnosed with cancer. Three years later, my father’s deteriorating health condition meant he could no longer care for himself. Thanks to home care nurse, Gigi Lam, and social worker, Francis Wong, my father was able to stay at Jockey Club Home for Hospice with care subsidy.
Under the compassionate care of the clinical staff, my father’s mood improved significantly. On Christmas Eve, our family shared a group photo underneath the Christmas tree. It was such a memorable moment that my father asked me to write a thank you card to the staff.
Most importantly, family visitation was allowed and even encouraged at the hospice. Because of this, we were able to accompany my father when he passed away on 15 March and even hold his memorial service all in the same place. As difficult as it was to lose my father, knowing that he departed with peace and dignity brought our family great comfort. Thank you for all that you do for underprivileged terminal patients and their families.
The Yu Family
