The Federal News Radio Community Spotlight for April is Montgomery Hospice.

Montgomery Hospice is a nonprofit organization that has been providing hospice care for our neighbors in Montgomery County for more than 30 years.

Hospice is health care for someone with an advanced illness. Patients can benefit from hospice services for six months, or even longer.

Hospice helps patients and their families.
Hospice patients receive care in their own homes. Members of the hospice team visit them wherever they live, whether it is a single-family home or apartment, a nursing home or group home.
When a person signs up for Montgomery Hospice, a team is assigned to help.

Join us Apr. 25 at 1 p.m. EST for Federal News Network's StateRAMP Exchange where we'll explore how the StateRAMP program provides cyber assurances as state agencies continue their IT modernization journeys. | Register today!
