Rance Hafner, M.D. ’92, has been named full-time medical director at Unity, a not-for-profit partnership of health care facilities in Green Bay, WI. He will oversee Unity’s new residential hospice facility in Ledgeview, WI; construction began on this facility in June.
Unity, dedicated to hospice and palliative care, was established through a partnership of Green Bay’s three not-for-profit hospitals: Bellin Health, St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center and St. Vincent Hospital. Its staff provides hospice, palliative care and grief support in 12 counties in northeast Wisconsin.
“I have a special affinity for end-of-life care,” he said. “I believe in the team approach to patient care, working with our nursing staff, social workers, chaplains, grief counselors and volunteers to deliver the highest quality care possible to patients and their families at such a critical time.”
Hafner, certified as a palliative care physician by the American Board of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, among other medical societies.
He resides in Green Bay with his wife, Kristin, and sons, Samuel and Max.
