 Hospice Care of South Carolina Announces Winner of First Annual Sweet Heart Contest web posted February 26, 2008 EDGEFIELD – Hospice Care of South Carolina recently held their first annual “Sweet Heart” contest. The contest was open to all who work in the healthcare field in Edgefield County. Hospice Care of South Carolina appreciates the fact that the healthcare field is increasing in excellence. New procedures and treatments are enabling people to live longer and fuller lives. However, we must not overlook those who provide the caring touch to those who are ill. Hospice Care of South Carolina’s “Sweet Heart” contest was directed to those who are in direct contact with patients and who demonstrate Hospice Care of South Carolina’s seven covenants of care that include character, caliber, community, compassion, commitment, contribution, and choice. While we commend all who are devoted to providing quality healthcare, we at Hospice Care of South Carolina recognize a very special person who exemplifies our covenants of care, the “Sweet Heart” winner, Ms. Ruby Stevens. Ms. Stevens, an employee of Edgefield County Hospital, was nominated by several of her peers. Ms. Stevens’ fellow co-workers describe her as one who provides for the emotional well being of her patients and respects the patient’s dignity. She never complains about helping others and often goes above and beyond the “call of duty”. Several of Ms. Stevens’ co-workers stated that she was a joy to work with and often goes the extra mile to assist patients and their families. Ms. Stevens was presented a gift basket filled with an assortment of items by Hospice Care of South Carolina’s Community Relations Director, Laurie Robinson. Robinson states, “All of the nominations were truly awesome and it was very difficult for our team to choose a grand prize winner. They are all winners to us. We are very fortunate to have such caring and compassionate people taking care of all of us in our own community.” Robinson presented each nominee a special gift from Hospice Care of South Carolina. Hospice Care of South Carolina is proud to be a part of the community in which it serves through its local office. Hospice Care of South Carolina has 26 offices throughout the state with each office hiring local people to serve in their own community. The Edgefield County office is located at 510 Augusta Road, Suite B in Edgefield, SC.
