The Ardent team received a big thank you for all of its hard work, effort and passion in another challenging year. On Friday, December 3, 2021, they enjoyed a delicious lunch, some fabulous raffle prizes, speeches and awards. Celebrating together in-person was a welcome step forward; the prior year’s event took place in the parking lot.

Ardent Healthcare is a family of companies which helps individuals and families across North Texas with a wide range of issues affecting the chronically and seriously ill. Its staff is comprised of knowledgeable, compassionate people, who understand these issues and are committed to excellent patient care. Congratulations to these employees of the year and to the entire team for navigating another challenging year and continuing to provide excellent care and support to those we serve.
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
