When CAPC was founded in 1999, few hospitals offered palliative care. Today, due to CAPC, most hospitals provide palliative care, and we're expanding access to settings in the community where most people live.
Approximately 12 million people nationwide could benefit from palliative care, so our work is far from complete. CAPC is asking those who know and understand the symptoms and distress of serious illness to support our mission and vision by making a generous donation.
"Palliative care gives back control to people when their lives seem completely uncontrollable. The patient is asked the question never heard in the hospital: What are YOUR goals?“ - Gail Sheehy, Writer
Millions of people facing serious illness don't know that palliative care can improve their quality of life. A gift of $75 can help us build palliative care awareness so that every seriously ill patient and their family knows to ask for palliative care.
Most doctors are not trained in the critical pain management and symptom control skills needed to treat people facing serious illness. A gift of $125 can help CAPC expand the palliative care workforce by training all frontline clinicians in the skills necessary to treat our sickest patients.
Palliative care is available in most hospitals today, but millions of seriously ill people need palliative care beyond the hospital. A gift of $250 allows CAPC to build palliative care programs where millions of seriously ill people and their families live and need help.
CAPC is an engine of change dedicated to improving the quality of care and quality of life of all people facing serious illness, and their families. A gift of $500 rapidly accelerates our ability to ensure access to palliative care across all settings -- hospitals, home, nursing home and assisted living -- so that the 12 million people who need palliative care can get palliative care.
