Meet the Agency
Compassus is a franchise location of Compassus, a national home care brand. This office is based in Paducah, Kentucky and serves the surrounding area.
They are a non-medical personal care agency — not a medical home health agency. Caregivers help with everyday things like bathing, meals, and company. They don't give shots, change wound dressings, or do anything a nurse would do.
About Compassus
National provider of hospice, palliative, and home health care. Operates under a partnership model with health systems across the US.
