Sadie Whorton – Hospice Hero

Ouachita Regional Hospice – Mena, Arkansas



Sadie Whorton, a registered nurse at Ouachita Regional Hospice in Mena, Ark., is a true advocate for her patients and their families.  Jessica Bigham, a PCR in Mena, receives many compliments about Sadie’s kind spirit and wonderful caring attitude from the facilities and physician offices that she visits regularly.  Recently, the following was posted to Facebook by one of the family members that Sadie encountered:

“Sadie, I just love you. If you ever wonder why your calling was in the field you work in, please remember today. You gave my family hope, comfort, peace, and a will to continue the fight that we could only pray and wish for. Your positive attitude, attention and prompt service caused immediate relief and even joy to him.  Thanks again…”


Most people think that hospice only focuses on death, but more often we really focus on life – helping patients live out their last few months in the best possible way. Thanks, Sadie, for being a bright rainbow for your patients and families and helping them make the most of their limited time. You are our Hospice Hero!
