Resource for Compassionate End-of-Life Care” at the March 18 meeting of the Midday Rotary Club of San Miguel de Allende. Nancy Stich and Dra.

As Mexico’s first hospice care facility, Mitigare offers state-of-the-art services designed to enhance quality of life. This presentation will address:
Founded in 2016, Hospice Care Mitigare is a non-profit organization dedicated to guiding patients and families through end-of-life challenges with dignity and compassion. In addition to medical care, Mitigare educates healthcare professionals and caregivers on palliative care to ensure broader community support. San Miguel de Allende’s growing population increases the demand for quality hospice care. Mitigare’s new hospice center, opening this fall, will offer inpatient, outpatient, and home-based services while serving as a training site for healthcare professionals. Phase one will feature a medical care center with three inpatient beds, a day hospital, administrative offices, a volunteer office, a conference room, and a non-denominational chapel. Phase two, set for completion within two years, will focus on palliative care training facilities. Dra. Lulú Tejeida is the Medical Director & Founding Board Member of Mitigare. She is a pioneer in Palliative Care and Hospice in Guanajuato, certified in oncology and hospice care by INCan. With a Master’s in Public Health, she has trained hundreds of professionals across Latin America and is dedicated to compassionate end-of-life care. Nancy Stich moved to Mexico in the late 1960s. She served as Director of Public Relations at ABC Medical Center and now leads volunteers for Hospice Care Mitigare. An author and community leader, she has contributed to healthcare, education, and nonprofit initiatives in Mexico. Our meetings take place in the Sala Quetzal in la Biblioteca.
