Claire Sherwood

Claire Sherwood worked as a hospice medical social worker for Partners in Home Care. Prior to her work as a medical social worker, she worked for 37 years in the hospitality field holding a variety positions. While living and working in California, she began to volunteer with hospice. Her volunteer work spanned 15 years and led her move to Missoula where she pursued and received a master’s degree from the University of Montana in Social Work in 2012. Her degree enabled her to work directly with veterans, respite care and facility care for patients and their families at end of life. Her work at PHC informed and reinforced her thinking regarding the need for an end-of-life facility — fueling her passion to create a such a facility for Western Montana.
