Good Samaritan Hospice expands in New River Valley
Good Samaritan Hospice has a new office in Christiansburg. Here is a press release from the nonprofit hospice:
Good Samaritan Hospice is expanding in the New River Valley with a new location offering more space for a growing mission to provide compassionate care to patients facing the end of life and families coming to terms with losing a loved one.
At 5,000 square feet, the new office at 1160 Moose Drive in Christiansburg features more training rooms, additional meeting and office space, high-tech upgrades and environmentally friendly elements, including sensor lights.
The expanded space follows last year’s move of Good Sam’s headquarters in Roanoke into larger, more efficient space.
“It’s our mission that defines us, not our office,” says Sue Ranson, Good Samaritan’s president and CEO. “Yet, due to growth in the NRV, our new space makes our mission easier, with more room for staff, family and group meetings, better coordination for patient care, and a place where hospice care will be more visible and accessible to the community.”
An open house for the community will be held in late summer.
“While our location has changed, our service will not,” Ranson says. “We will continue to provide a special kind of compassionate care to all by focusing not only on the physical, but also the social, emotional and spiritual aspects of life.”
