As sweet as apple pie. 🥧🍎🥰 For the past two decades, Verga and her husband Clezell went to an apple orchard each autumn. We brought it to her since Verga doesn't have the strength or energy to go this year. She especially perked up when she heard there was apple pie! Our team joined in a time of music and reminiscing while enjoying apple pie and cider. Clezell expressed his appreciation for this Mosaic Moment and our Ecumen Hospice team supporting him and his wife. Join our team and help make a difference every day!

We are excited to welcome CentraCare – St. Benedict’s Community in St. Cloud, Monticello and Sartell to Ecumen! Ecumen was selected as the new owner of these three long-term care and senior housing communities by CentraCare, in part, because of its outstanding reputation, and its commitment to the tradition of the St. Benedict’s Community. “We couldn’t be happier that we are bringing our mission of providing compassionate health care and innovative services to the greater St. Cloud area. We are eager to get to know the team members and residents here, and to be part of this already vibrant community,” said Ecumen President and CEO Shelley Kendrick.
Summertime at an Ecumen community looks pretty sweet whether you call us home or work with us! 🌞😎🌭🌼🎣

In 1944, Betty joined the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corp - an initiative during WWII to address the serve shortage of nurses in the US. 120,000 honorable and courageous women, like Betty, made a pledge to serve the country as nurses for the duration of the war. Our Ecumen Hospice team had the privilege of honoring Betty's service through a veteran pinning ceremony, timed perfectly to coincide with National Nurses Week. Making it extra special, Betty read aloud the U.S. Cadet Nurse pledge that she also said many years ago. Thank you, Betty, for your patriotism and service to the United States of America.
