Palliative Care Support

Palliative Care Support will help you determine whether palliative care or hospice care is right for you. After discussing care goals with you, our team will work with community partners and help you find resources to meet your needs.

What is the difference between palliative and hospice care?

Palliative care is for those who may still be undergoing curative treatments and want help focusing on quality of life and symptom management. Hospice care is for those not currently receiving curative treatments but who want to have specialized symptom management and increased quality of life.

Can I receive palliative care even if I’m still pursuing aggressive treatments, such as chemotherapy?

Yes. In fact, palliative care services may be particularly useful to you in this situation.

How We Help

Whether you are navigating a serious or advanced illness or caring for someone who is, you have a lot on your mind.

We're happy to answer questions about our services, eligibility, referrals, and available resources. Whether you're seeking care for yourself, a loved one, or simply looking for information, our team is here to help. You don't have to sign up for anything to start a conversation.

When should I contact Compassionate Care Plus?
Many families tell us they wish they had reached out sooner. If you or a loved one is facing a serious or advanced illness, experiencing changes in health, or simply needs additional support, now is a good time to start the conversation.

The earlier we become involved, the more opportunities we have to provide education, resources, and support for both patients and families.

What services are right for me?
Every situation is unique. The services that may be appropriate depend on a variety of factors, including a person's diagnosis, goals of care, support system, and current needs.

Our team will take time to understand your situation, answer your questions, and help determine what services and resources may be the best fit.

How do I get started? We recommend contacting us to learn more about programs and options. You can do that here, by calling us at 859-986-1500, or via email to info@ccpky.org. Once you’re ready, we can work with your loved one’s providers to review medical records and arrange for a home or facility visit from one of our nurses. The nurse will assess your loved one and answer your questions.
