Who We Are
Compassus is a nationwide network of community-based post-acute care services primarily focused on hospice, palliative and home healthcare. Founded in 2006, the Nashville, Tennessee-based company; however, its roots in hospice go back to 1979. Today, the company operates more than 300 home health, infusion therapy, palliative, and hospice programs across the U.S. Compassus’ continuum of integrated home-based care services ensures patients and their families have the support they need to address current and future health needs. The mission of Compassus is to advance well-being and honor quality of life. Compassus’ mission focuses on five core values: Compassion, Integrity, Excellence, Teamwork, and Innovation. Our vision is to transform lives as the most valued partner for person-centered care delivered where people live. True compassion is a very personal and private experience shared between caring people, and it is best expressed by those closest to you. This is why Compassus has embraced Care for who I am, as it encompasses the mission and vision. As we provide care, we are guided by the patient’s perspective and the three domains of our Care Delivery Model: Who I am – Quality of Life; How I feel – Comfort (Total Pain Management, Symptom Management); and What I need – Safety (Right Meds Right Time, Safety & Autonomy). Compassus believes in the power of connection, and why we value our volunteers, as we acknowledge the power of compassionate care and collaboration with the members in the community.
What We Do
Hospice brings comfort, dignity and honor to the end of life's journey. We focus on the person, in addition to the disease process, with person-centered, comprehensive care to meet physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs.
