If you are navigating a serious or advanced illness, we’re here to help, every step of the way.

You are not alone.

Hope and Support

We have over four decades of experience supporting families in our community coping with the challenging journey of serious and advanced illness.

Our care teams specialize in expert care with compassion, dignity, respect, and hope.

As a non-profit, independent, award-winning organization, our only goal is to support patients and caregivers and promote quality of life.

Learn how our organization and all our programs—home hospice care, in-patient hospice care at the Compassionate Care Center and grief & loss support—can bring hope, support, expert care, and compassion to you and your family.

This journey can be filled with many twists and turns, but you aren't alone.  We’re here to guide you and your family through the process one step at a time.

"Plus" care that goes above and beyond

We go above and beyond the basics of hospice care.

Although nearly all insurance programs fully cover hospice care, we go above and beyond to ensure care that truly promotes quality of life – as YOU define it. Whether it’s a flight around the county or a wedding, we partner with you to create special experiences that make this chapter of life meaningful and memorable.  

Our Grief & Loss Support program is for everyone, not just the families of our patients.
We offer free resources and education for the community.

We Serve Central and Eastern Kentucky

Estill, Jackson, Lee, Madison, Owsley, and Rockcastle Counties

Hospice Care Plus will come to you, wherever you are, as long as you are a resident of one of these six Kentucky counties. Your home downtown, a farm in a rural community, the hospital, or an extended care facility - we're there for you wherever you are.

Where is Compassionate Care Plus Located?

Wherever you call home, we come to you.

We are located at the Compassionate Care Center in Richmond, but our home hospice program is dedicated to allowing patients to remain where they are most comfortable, surrounded by the people they care about most.

For most, that means staying home. Wherever you call home - an assisted living community, nursing home, subdivision, or family farm - we come to you.
