The new, spacious room offers families a private retreat to spend uninterrupted time with their loved one. The private room includes a sitting area with a loveseat and flat screen television. The suite features paint, linens and decorative accents in comforting, natural shades. Families can gather together around a new table to share meals, enjoy complimentary refreshments, or simply spend quality time together during a difficult time.

Jan Tabor, Chester Rehab and Nursing Administrator, is thrilled with the results.

"This room provides everything the patient might require, as well as a comfortable space for family to spend time with their loved one," Tabor said.

Passages Hospice staff volunteered their time and talent in preparing and painting the room.
