Our hearts are heavy to learn about the loss of Dr. Bernice Catherine Harper, a compassionate leader who championed considerable advancements in #hospice and #palliativecare and #socialwork in the United States and across the globe.💜 Dr. Harper’s dedication to #diversity, #equity, and #inclusion in healthcare transformed the industry and impacted countless lives. Her political advocacy helped incorporate hospice care as a benefit under #Medicare. Her relentless advocacy led to increased accessibility to hospice care in Africa and around the world through Global Partners in Care.🌎 At VITAS, we recognize and honor Dr. Harper’s undeniable impact on ensuring that underserved communities not only have access to compassionate end-of-life care, but also are represented in their unique care needs.👏🏼 We are grateful for all her contributions that continue to help guide us in providing high-quality, culturally appropriate care to our #patients and #caregivers. Dr. Harper’s #legacy will live on through the many lives she touched fostering #inclusive, person-centered care for all. May her resilient and passionate character never be forgotten.💜✨ #DEI #HealthcareAdvocacy #EndOfLifeCare #SocialWorker
