If you are navigating a serious 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 or terminal 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—hospice, palliative, and grief 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.
Remembrance Tree Ceremony
First Sunday in December
For decades, the Remembrance Tree Ceremony has been a chance for the community to remember loved ones during the holiday season.
Anyone who misses a loved one during the holidays is welcome to participate, regardless of whether your loved one was cared for by our hospice.
"Plus" care that goes above and beyond
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.
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 Hospice Care Plus Located?
Wherever you call home, we come to you.
Hospice Care Plus & Compassionate Care Center is located in Richmond, but our Home Hospice and Palliative Care programs are dedicated to allowing our patients to be where they want to be, with 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.
