Our Story

Appalachian Hospice Care was founded in 1991 and has been serving the Big Sandy region of Pike, Floyd, Martin, Magoffin, and Johnson Counties in Kentucky ever since. As the areaโ€™s locally owned and operated hospice, AHC has made it our mission to provide quality, compassionate care to folks when they need it the most. As a not-for-profit agency, AHC works to reduce out-of-pocket spending on equipment, medication, and supplies, and never turns anybody away because of their inability of pay.

Hospice is a special kind of comfort care designed to treat patients who are suffering from life-limiting illnesses (Cancer, Cardiac Disease, Pulmonary Disease, Renal Disease, Liver Disease, Alzheimerโ€™s, Parkinsonโ€™s, and others). The hospice program aims to control pain and symptoms of patients who decide to no longer seek treatment. Our ultimate goal is help patients and their families live as fully as possible.

Skilled nursing, personal care, medical social work, spiritual support, and grief counseling services are all offered by our team. Our hospice care team is comprised of a Medical Director, highly skilled Nurses, Social Workers, Chaplains, Certified Nurse Aides, and trained volunteers.

Call us today to learn more about hospice, schedule a free consultation, or to refer yourself or a loved one. Our patients and their loved ones are always a part of our Appalachian Hospice Care family!
