Welcome to Compassion Crossing
You don’t have to face this alone. Whether you’re planning ahead while healthy, dealing with a serious illness, or caring for someone you love, I offer practical guidance and direct support to help you feel more prepared and less overwhelmed. I serve clients in Madison County, Kentucky, and the seven surrounding counties in person, and I work with individuals and families nationwide by phone or video.
Personal Care Coordination Services
Sometimes what you need most isn’t more information. It’s someone who will act with you as your advocate. I coordinate with all your providers, review your medications across every source to catch harmful interactions, and make sure no detail falls through the cracks.
For clients in Madison County, Kentucky, and the surrounding seven counties, I provide in-person support for appointments and hospital procedures. All other services are available remotely through Google Meet, Zoom, or phone, no matter where you live.
Our services include:
- Advance Care Planning involves guiding individuals through value-based advance directives to create a care plan that promotes comfort and quality of life when they cannot speak for themselves.
- Dementia Care Coaching helps caregivers and family members adapt, cope, and care for loved ones with dementia.
- Grief Support helps individuals integrate loss and grief, build resilience, and incorporate losses to strengthen their life journey, rather than just “move on and forget.”
- Hospice Nurse Coaching offers one-on-one clinical support to hospice nurses with documentation, eligibility, and end-of-life conversations.
- Illness Navigation guides people through new or ongoing chronic and terminal illnesses.
- Medication Reconciliation reduces medication errors, side effects, and polypharmacy, thereby improving health by minimizing harm.

Meet Your Guide
I’m Peter Abraham, BSN, RN, EOLD, a registered nurse, patient advocate, and end-of-life doula. I’ve written more than 60 evidence-based guides on hospice, palliative care, and end-of-life navigation. My clinical background includes cardiology, medical-surgical units, and long-term care across Pennsylvania, with most of my nursing career spent on rural hospice case management.
Over the years, I kept seeing the same thing: hospice workers, nurses, grief professionals, and caregivers doing demanding work without the practical, clinically sound resources they deserve. That observation is what drives my writing. My book series, including Empowering Excellence in Hospice, Bridges to Eternity, Holistic Nurse: Skills for Excellence, Caregiver Support Series, and the Living Stones Series, provides end-of-life professionals and family caregivers with tools grounded in real clinical experience rather than theory.
If you’re a hospice nurse, you know the feeling of finishing a visit and wondering whether your documentation would pass a Medicare audit, whether you explained eligibility convincingly enough, or whether you handled a hard family conversation the right way. That uncertainty is the gap nobody warned you about. I’ve managed caseloads in full compliance with Medicare, helped multiple hospice agencies save thousands of dollars per patient through careful medication management, and served as a keynote speaker at the 2026 South Carolina HAPC Virtual Didactics Conference. I built my Hospice Nurse Coaching program for exactly this problem: a focused, one-hour session built around your specific situation.
Today, I also work as a Health Navigation Specialist and patient advocate through Compassion Crossing, LLC, supporting patients and families in central Kentucky and nationwide by telehealth. I listen first. I guide gently. I honor what matters most. That approach, rooted in my faith, drives one clear goal: giving every person at the bedside, professional or family, the confidence to show up well. I live in central Kentucky with my wife, Laura, and our two rescue dogs.
