This annual chicken barbeque benefits the palliative care program at the M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center, the 178-bed skilled-nursing facility operated by UR Medicine's Thompson Health in Canandaigua. The meals, by Grove Boys Catering of Naples, are $10 each and will include a marinated half chicken, salt potatoes, cole slaw and a dinner roll. A 50/50 raffle will raise additional funds. Palliative Care and M.M. Ewing includes comforting items such as handmade quilts and CDs with soothing music as well as iPads for video chats with long-distance family members. In addition, the program provides information for families regarding the end-of-life process and a "comfort cart" for families keeping vigil - with bottled water, snacks and toiletries. Special furniture is also provided, for family members who wish to stay overnight alongside their loved one.
