Nimtu | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 09:32 am     Help!! I am opening a hospice program and the name that my partners and I had been counting on using has just been taken. I have noticed that TVCH members are the most creative people I've seen and I would love any input! |
Goddessatlaw | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 09:35 am     Wow, Nimtu. Hospice workers are absolute angels of mercy. Let me think about this a bit. |
Heyltslori | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 09:58 am     What was the name you originally wanted? |
Draheid | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:09 am     Any other specifics you care to share for consideration such as location, specialty services you might offer, special background of the partners involved, anything that might need to be emphasized in a name to represent the company? |
Nimtu | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:32 am     Let's see..good questions. Specifically, we would like the name to represent the intent of hospice rather than the location or the partners. For instance, hospice means a "rest for weary travelers" and our intent is to be there to support the emotional, physical and spiritual needs of our patients and their families. We will not be a "place" we will go to them in their homes and provide the care. Our original name was Guardian, however, a home health agency has opened with that name (it doesn't preclude us from utilizing the name, however, it would tend to tie us together in the mind of the community) |
Grooch | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:42 am     How about Sanctuary? |
Grooch | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:43 am     Or from Seinfield, "Serenity Now!" |
Silksmoke | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:48 am     How about EMBRACES em·brace - to clasp in the arms to take up especially readily or gladly |
Buttercup | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:50 am     Nimtu, I don't have a suggestion at the moment, but I just wanted to say that I think what you are doing is absolutely wonderful. Hospice workers are truly a blessing to the dying. Hmmm...perhaps Blessings could be an appropriate name for your program? Then when people think about you, they will think you are a true Blessing

Babyruth | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 10:57 am     How about: Circle Of Life Hospice Compassionate Care Oasis Support |
Goddessatlaw | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 11:01 am     Nimtu, I would have to say that Grooch's suggestion of "Sanctuary" really summarizes the intents you stated above. Home, spiritual (as opposed to religious), place of rest. To me, a sanctuary is a place of comfort and safety. My home is my sanctuary. I don't know what the word connotes to everyone else, but I'd have a hard top topping Grooch's suggestion. Maybe "Sanctuary Hospice Services" or "Sanctuary Home Health Care" or some variation like that. |
Wargod | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 11:05 am     Nim, you truly are an angel! It takes a huge, caring, wonderful heart to do Hospice work! |
Schoolmarm | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 11:09 am     Juju is a good name for a business....LOL!! Just kidding, we seem to name everything around here Juju! I really like several of the names suggested, especially Compassionate Care, Blessings, Embraces, Hmmmm....you have lots of good ones to choose from. |
Babyruth | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 11:18 am     Yes, I like JujuCare. |
Bob2112 | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 12:09 pm     I agree, Juju is a good name for a hospice program. |
Chiparock | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 12:38 pm     Another possibility: Guardian Angels. ... or Juju Angels ...  |
Nimtu | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 12:40 pm     Thank you all very much for the time and thought on helping me find a name. I knew that I could count on TVCH members to be creative! Now I can go into my partner meeting with some ideas - I'm not sure they will get the Juju...but oh well I will keep everybody here up to date on the final decision. |
Goddessatlaw | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 12:58 pm     I like Guardian Angels, too, if it's possible. |
Whit4you | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 02:32 pm     Above and Beyond _________ (fill in the blank) |
Twiggyish | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 03:07 pm     I vote for Sanctuary or How about combining names suggested.. Compassionate Angels |
Juju2bigdog | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 03:37 pm     Juju's Guardian Angels Juju's Compassionate Blessings Or, to keep it nice and simple as Babyruth suggested, JujuCare. Blessings Home Hospice Service |
Littlebreeze | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 03:42 pm     Vigilant Hearts (or Heart) Vigilant showing attentive, dedicated care to the patient. Heart(s) showing kindness and compassion. 2 things everyone looks for in a hospice provider. That's my 2 cents worth of name dropping. Good luck in your endeavor, Nimtu! It's worthy and noble work. |
Weinermr | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 07:27 pm     "Hospice at Home" "All-Care Hospice Services" "Home Synergy" "Caring Hearts" (maybe someone already suggested this one) Good luck. |
Meggieprice | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 08:21 pm     I love Sanctuary |
Juju2bigdog | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 08:24 pm     Blessings Home Hospice Care |
