In this episode of In The Arena, co-hosts Lauren Navarre and Jared Miguez sit down with Miranda Parker and Cheryl Scaglione, the Director and Assistant Director of Hospice House in St. Tammany Parish. They discuss the crucial work they do supporting families through end-of-life care, ensuring patients experience comfort, dignity, and peace in their final days. With just two employees, Hospice House provides 24-hour care, managing everything from daily operations to community outreach while heavily relying on private donations and fundraising.

Miranda and Cheryl also share the challenges and rewards of running a small, community-driven organization, as they continue to grow. Currently, the facility operates with three rooms, but plans are in motion to expand by building a second house to accommodate more families. Their mission remains focused on providing the highest level of comfort, care, and dignity for patients, while also relieving the caregiving burden for families. Tune in to hear how Hospice House is making a profound impact on the St. Tammany Parish community and how you can get involved to help further their mission.
