Community Outreach/Speakers Bureau

Gulfside Regional Hospice participates in outreach events on various topics surrounding caregiver resources, healthcare decision making, grief and loss, and end-of-life care issues.

Activities include speaking engagements, community tours of our Gulfside Center for Hospice Care, information booths at health or community fairs, and other community events. Members of our Speakers Bureau are available to present at local organizations and businesses.
