During the month of February, several local banks and businesses are hosting the annual “Hearts for Hospice” fundraising event.
When you visit the lobby or drive-through of a participating bank or business, you will have the opportunity to request a memorial heart for a donation of at least one dollar. Donors write their name or the name of the person they are remembering on the heart. Banks and businesses will display your heart throughout the month.
You can also donate online, and we will display your memorial heart at our Compassionate Care Center.
We invite you to help us spread the word by tagging Hospice Care Plus on your social media platforms and using #heartsforhospice when you share a photo of your memorial heart.
All proceeds from Hearts for Hospice support our programs, including hospice care, grief & loss support and education for care givers and families in the counties we serve: Estill, Jackson, Lee, Madison, Owsley, and Rockcastle.

To Be Thanked for His Service
Honoring those who have served our country is one of our greatest joys. Not everyone understands how important it can be for a veteran to be formally recognized for their service, especially as the end of life nears.
To Have Coffee with an Old Friend
When we ask our patients what’s most important to them or what’s on their minds, what we are trying to do is learn. We can’t meet a need that we haven’t learned about. Many needs are relatively obvious and easy to meet: a walker for support, a new medication to treat a new symptom, for instance. Other needs take time to reveal themselves, but they are no less important.
