Worthington, MN—The Sunset Hospice Cottage has announced a temporary closure due to acute staffing shortages, an unfortunate side effect of the broader healthcare staffing crisis impacting rural America. Sunset Hospice Cottage has provided comfortable living for Worthington residents nearing the end of life since 2003, but now, due to an unprecedented shortage of healthcare workers, the cottage is forced to close its doors for the first time in 20 years.
