Down East Hospice names co-director

CALAIS – Down East Hospice, Washington County’s hospice volunteer program, recently hired Penny Salm of Calais as its co-director.

She will share management responsibility with Barbara Barnett of Pembroke.

Salm will assume many of the duties previously handled by director Barbara Smith, who resigned to pursue a two-year nursing degree program in Calais through the University of Maine at Augusta. Smith will continue to work part-time for the hospice as its office manager.

Salm recently moved to the area from Texas. She has owned her own business and has worked with delinquent youth. She said she was looking forward to working with the hospice volunteers.
