Staff Massages!

Staff Massages at the Alois Alzheimer Center!

As a special treat our representative from Hospice of Southwest Ohio, Ted Killian, arranged for massage therapists to provide an afternoon of massages for the entire staff at the Alois Alzheimer Center. How fortunate we are to be recognized and pampered. HSWO acknowledges the great work of the caregivers, at Alois who work each and every day to enhance the lives of those with memory loss.


We send our deepest gratitude to all those at HSWO and to the employees at the "Spaaaah! and East Kemper Chiropractic" who provided the therapists for a blissful, relaxing afternoon.
