Your Impact

  • Our interdisciplinary team made 14,306 home visits last year.
  • Our triage nurses spent 2,850 hours providing after-hours and crisis support so families are never alone.
  • Our care teams devoted more than 8,500 hours coordinating care, family meetings, and clinical discussions — time that ensures every patient receives the highest quality of compassionate care, even though it is not reimbursed.
  • And more than 200 community members donated 47,420 hours of their time, serving on boards, providing presence, comfort, companionship, and fundraising support — a total valued at nearly $1 million in volunteer service.

Beyond the Numbers

We are more than a service—we are a community of care. As the only nonprofit, Joint Commission-accredited, 4-star rated provider in our region, we are deeply committed to showing up for our neighbors with the highest quality care and heartfelt compassion.

Your support ensures we can continue to offer:

  • A compassionate hospice and palliative care team that supports the whole person—body, mind, and spirit
  • Free grief support for up to 13 months after the loss of a loved one
  • Caregiver education and respite services to help families navigate their journey with confidence and care
  • Community outreach and education to connect underserved, low-income individuals with the support they need
  • Volunteer training and coordination to provide extra hands—and hearts—for families and caregivers

These vital services go beyond what insurance reimburses—your support bridges that gap.

Help Us Continue This Work

Nonprofit end-of-life care is rare, and it exists in Western Nevada County because people like you in the past believed that everyone deserves dignity, comfort, and compassion at the end of life. Your support ensures that Foothills Compassionate Care will be here not just today, but for generations to come.

For the next 50 years, and beyond. Let us be there for you, your family, and every person who needs us—when it matters most.
