Comfort Connect @Home

Managing a serious illness can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. You can receive regular phone support from a registered nurse, offering guidance, resources, and reassurance to help you navigate your health with confidence—right from home.

Comfort Connect @Home: Support for You and Your Family

Comfort Connect @Home provides telephone support for people living with a serious illness, such as Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), and cancer.

A registered nurse will connect with you regularly by phone to help you manage your health at home.

Whether you are early in your illness journey, recently discharged from the hospital, or living alone, this service can provide valuable support. The nurse will help you understand your illness, explore care options, and connect you with community supports based on your needs at each stage of your journey.
