GULFSIDE HOSPICE & PASCO PALLIATIVE CARE HOLDS GRAND OPENING CELEBRATION FOR CORPORATE RESOURCE CENTER

PASCO COUNTY, Fla. (February 28, 2014) – Gulfside Hospice & Pasco Palliative Care staff members have a new location to call home – the Corporate Resource Center, located in Land O’ Lakes – and celebrated the new building at a grand opening celebration on Feb. 25.

            The Corporate Resource Center, located at 2061 Collier Parkway, houses all of the executive, directors and some administrative staff members at one location. Both current administrative offices in New Port Richey and Dade City remain open, and are now Clinical Office locations.

During the grand opening celebration, Gulfside Hospice & Pasco Palliative Care held two open houses, which offered tours of the new building and special presentations from board members and a ribbon cutting by the Central Pasco Chamber of Commerce.

 “The new Corporate Resource Center allows our administrative staff members the ability to work closely together in a central location in Pasco County,” said Linda Ward, Gulfside Hospice & Pasco Palliative Care president and CEO. “This year, Gulfside is celebrating our 25th anniversary of serving the residents of Pasco County, so this is a great way to kick off the year with this new building.”

In addition to speeches from Ward, board chair Dr. Daniel Heinig spoke at both openings. “The Gulfside family dedicates itself to serving the people of Pasco County in bringing them comfort and solace in their time of need,” said Heinig. “Today, we are celebrating this great occasion of the grand opening of this Resource Center, which will contribute to our ability to help our fellow residents of Pasco.”
