Tonia’s co-workers shared these comments:

“Tonia is a primary driving force behind the growth of hospice and caring for people at the close of life over the last 10 years in Calloway County. Hospice cared for over 70% of the deaths in our hospital since November 1, 2018. She is a competent nurse that families are able to become comfortable with very quickly. She is a vast resource of knowledge to new nurses coming on to staff. This year, she has recently spent many hours mastering the new Electronic Medical Record so that staff can use it competently and confidently. Tonia believes that hospice nursing is a calling in her life and it is demonstrated by her personable and compassionate interaction with the dying. Tonia makes hospice shine in their care to our community.”
