Stephani Bernard, BSN, RN

Stephani consistently provides calm, compassionate care for hospice patients and families during early morning and after-hours shifts. Arriving at a patient’s home one morning, she found that the patient had died. Stephanie responded by gently guiding a new caregiver and grieving family through a Lavender Legacy Bath. Suddenly, a house fire broke out. Stephanie quickly extinguished the fire, secured the home, and reassured the family before returning the focus to honoring their loved one. Her composure, clinical expertise, and extraordinary compassion exemplify the very best of hospice care.
