Today, we celebrate a rewarding 14-year history in taking care of people in their last months, weeks, and hours. Administrator Jimmie Stapleton shared this with the team:
To: All Staff
What a great day. Fourteen years ago, Ellen and I started Ardent Hospice. Our goal was simple. We wanted to make a difference in the lives of others in our community because they had supported us during a difficult time in our lives.
With the help of everyone, past and present, we continue to meet this goal. The cards, letters and calls from our patients/families prove that you guys are helping these families when they need it the most. Please know that what you do makes a difference and has a lasting legacy.
Taking care of people will never go out of style. I look forward to what the next year holds for Ardent.
Happy Anniversary Ardent!!!
P.S. – It’s also opening day for Major League Baseball. Go Rangers!!
Thank you for the continued support from our Ardent family, friends, and community.
My name is Jimmie Stapleton. I am the founder and CEO of Ardent Healthcare. Ardent Healthcare includes Ardent Hospice, Ardent Supportive Care, MaximaCare Home Health and Ardent at Home.
Ardent Hospice was opened in 2007 to provide care and support for individuals and families facing a life limiting illness. It was established after my wife Ellen, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer, had completed her chemo and radiation therapies. At that time, things were looking positive, and we wanted to do something for our community that had been so supportive of our family during her treatments. Unfortunately, the cancer returned a few years later, and she subsequently passed away under our care in 2010.
In the years that followed, I began to see the need to provide the same level of excellent care to patients across the continuum of care. Therefore, we have added a home health division (MaximaCare Home Health), a palliative care division (Ardent Supportive Care), and a home care division, (Ardent at Home). With the addition of these divisions, we can meet most of the post-acute care needs for you and your family in your home.
I started Ardent Hospice with my wife as my motivation to provide exceptional care and support in the patient’s home, where they are surrounded by family and where they feel most comfortable. I’m proud to say that our staff provides some of the best in home care in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area.
Please let us know if we can enrich the quality of life for you or a loved one.
Sincerely,
Jimmie Stapleton – Founder and CEO
