Bluegrass Care Navigators provides physical, emotional, and spiritual care to thousands of seriously ill patients and their families in Kentucky. It's what we do.

  • Is a terminal diagnosis required to be eligible for hospice care?

    Patients who are eligible for hospice care must have a chronic illness or terminal diagnosis with a life expectancy of six month or less, and who is no longer seeking curative treatment for their illness, but is instead focused on managing symptoms and quality of life.

  • What services do you offer?

    We offer a variety of services to support you and your family during a serious illness, long before hospice care may be needed. Call us to discuss your individual needs and how we may be able to support you with symptom management and home-based services.

  • Do I need a doctor's referral to get started with hospice?

    No, anyone can request hospice services by calling Bluegrass Care Navigators directly. A referral from your doctor is not needed.

  • What type of services do I receive if I decide to use hospice?

    Hospice services care for your physical, emotional and spiritual needs with a care team of physicians, nurses, nursing assistants, social workers and chaplains who focus on what is most important to you and your family.

  • Who pays for hospice?

    Hospice care is a fully-covered benefit under Medicare, Medicaid and most private insurance. In most cases, equipment, medication and care provided by our team, as well as other required hospice benefits related to the terminal diagnosis, are 100 percent covered.

Tim and Helen Hoffstedder
February 17, 2026
Team BCN brought compassionate, personalized care to Tim and Helen Hoffstedder during a challenging chapter in their lives. After receiving a dementia diagnosis almost seven years ago, Helen’s family did their best to care for her at home. When she required additional support, they moved her to ColdSpring Transitional Care where she could receive high-quality care around the clock. In February 2024, she began retaining fluid and had difficulty breathing. The team at ColdSpring Care referred the family to Bluegrass Hospice Care and that extra support brought her husband Tim immense reassurance.
