The Hadlow Center was named in honor of a very respected attorney and community leader, Earl B. Hadlow. Near the end of Mr. Hadlow's life, he accepted the challenge of joining the Hospice Northeast Board of Directors in an ambitious undertaking; the creation of a hospice residence. Mr. Hadlow's goal was to establish a hospice residence to serve terminally ill patients in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. His vision of a hospice residence, which he shared with his family and closest friends, became a reality shortly after his death.   Who is Eligible for Care in The Hadlow Center? The 24-bed residence is available to: Patients who do not have a caregiver in the home. Patients who have an elderly caregiver who is unable to provide the support needed. Patients who are young and whose husband or wife must work and care for the children at home. Patients who do not qualify for placement under the Medicaid Benefit in long term care facilities. Hospice Northeast receives reimbursement for residential care (room and board) at The Hadlow Center through some private insurance and self-pay. The Hospice Medicare Benefit covers ancillary costs such as medication and supplies related to the terminal illness. No one is ever denied services due to their inability to contribute to the cost of their care. Back to the Concours d'Elegance Main Menu
