The Addison County Home Health & Hospice Board of Directors invites students to consider being a trustee for one year. Located just north of town on Route 7, our mission is to treat patients in the comfort of their home, whether they are returning from the hospital or needing physical therapy to return to self-sufficiency or to receive end of life care with dignity and comfort at home in the presence of loved ones. The agency has a large clinical staff as well as occupational and physical therapists. ACHH&H and Hospice Volunteer Services (HVS) work very closely together.

The person chosen will gain firsthand knowledge about how critically needed health care is provided to hundreds of clients and family throughout Addison County. By attending monthly board meetings as a member and individual meetings with the board chair this person will gain valuable knowledge about the responsibilities and kinds of decisions trustees make.  Meetings with the executive director and members of his leadership team and accompanying staff as they visit clients and families in their homes will add direct experience. A preference will be given to that student who has expressed an interest in the health care professions. To learn more go to www.achhh.org and to www.hospicevs.org. Please contact Chuck Burdick ’63, Board Chair, to learn more. Email cburdick@shoreham.net or call 462-3599.
