The Finlandia University Student Nurses Association is hosting its 2nd Annual Pancake Breakfast this Saturday at the Gloria Dei Church in Hancock.
The breakfast takes place from 8am until noon with proceeds benefitting the Omega House in Houghton.
The Omega House’s vision is to be a community leader and resource for end of life care.
Their mission is to provide a home-like environment where people at the end of life may live fully, receiving compassionate and competent care from professional, volunteer, and family caregivers.
Holistic care is provided to all of the resident’s living at the Omega House.
Supplementing holistic care, hospice trained nursing staff help control pain so residents can live each day in comfort and with dignity.
One-third of residents cared for are veterans, and the Omega House has established a special fund to assist in providing care to any veteran in need of local hospice care.
