Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day - Template Emails/Texts to Support Your Staff
Hospice & Palliative Care Today; by Joy Berger; 10/8/25
In preparation for tomorrow's World Mental Health Day, Friday, October 10, 2025, we’ve created these sample email and text templates to help you easily share encouragement and support with your employees and volunteers — especially those who provide direct patient and family care. While this year’s worldwide emphasis is on “catastrophes and emergencies,” (e.g. natural disasters, war, et.al.) it loosely connects to hospice work. Each visit a clinician makes has the potential for walking into a patient’s, caregiver’s, or family’s end-of-life “catastrophe” (“she’s dying!”) or “emergency” (pain, terminal restlessness). Supporting your staff through these ongoing, accumulated stresses is essential to sustaining your mission — compassionate hospice care.
