Direct Care
CCLD offers a comfort care home for end-of-life care for those who are unable to or do not wish to die in their own homes. We provide compassionate care in a peaceful, dignified, non-medicalized, home-like environment, focused solely on the dying individual’s unique needs. A team comprising family members and volunteers, in collaboration with existing hospice programs, offer direct care to each individual. Our holistic model complements and enhances medical hospice care, filling caregiving gaps without duplicating services. All caregiving takes place in a "home," at no charge, for those served by CCLD members.
​
The home is located in Swannanoa, NC near Warren Wilson College.
