TALLAHASSEE â Florida health care regulators announced this year that the state needed an additional four hospice programs by July 2022 to care for people who are dying.
This week, though, the state Agency for Health Care Administration gave tentative approval to twice that many.
The decisions, announced Monday, could bring additional hospice programs to seven counties across the state, including Broward, Lee and Manatee counties, which were not included in a Feb. 5 published list of areas that needed new programs.

Rose Shannahan Sawyer passed away peacefully with her family by her side at the age of 91 on Oct. 29, 2020, in Wilton Manors, Florida. Rose was a lifetime resident of Key West, born in the same house as her father across from the Fire Station No. 3 on the corner of Grinnell and Virginia streets.
In her early years, she worked for General Electric on the military base and later at First State Bank of the Florida Keys. Many, however, remember her as the Tupperware Lady throughout Key West and the Florida Keys, where she was the manager for over 20 years. Later in life, she decided to become a school crossing guard at Horace OâBryant Middle School. She always said that middle school students were her pride and joy. By the end of each year, she had forged friendships with students and their parents. Even after the students went on to high school, they would return just to say âHiâ and let her know how they were doing.
