Year After Year, Green Goes Red:
Heart Month Means Everything at Crossroads

February is National Heart Month, a time to raise awareness about heart disease and the millions of patients and families affected by it every day.

For Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care, Heart Month is more than a calendar reminder. It reflects the lived reality of a significant portion of the patients we serve.

Patients with advanced heart disease and congestive heart failure (CHF) represent one of the largest and most complex groups we serve. For many, heart disease has meant years of progressive symptoms, repeated hospitalizations, and difficult care decisions.

Heart Month is an opportunity to pause, acknowledge that reality, and share how Crossroads partners with healthcare professionals to support these patients more fully: clinically, emotionally, spiritually, and always with the utmost compassion.

Let’s talk about supporting your heart patients.

Heart Month is a reminder, but the need for heart-focused care exists all year long.

If you care for patients with advanced heart disease or CHF and would like to learn more about how Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care can support your patients and your practice, we invite you to connect with us.

Crossroads works collaboratively with cardiologists, primary care providers, hospital teams, skilled nursing facilities, and care coordinators to support patients with advanced heart disease.

Our care is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing treatment plans while providing an added layer of support as needs increase.

For healthcare professionals, partnering with Crossroads can mean:

• Additional clinical support for complex heart patients
• Help navigating difficult conversations with patients and families
• Reduced avoidable hospital utilization
• Confidence that patients are receiving comprehensive, compassionate care

How Crossroads steps in for heart patients.

Crossroads supports patients with advanced heart disease and CHF by focusing on outcomes that matter most to both patients and healthcare professionals: stability, continuity, and fewer crisis-driven transitions.

Fewer crises. Fewer readmissions.

Repeated hospital stays can take a physical and emotional toll on heart patients. Crossroads helps patients remain in the setting they prefer, often at home, while still receiving high-level clinical support.

This continuity of care helps:

• Reduce emergency department visits and hospital readmissions
• Improve patient comfort and sense of control
• Support family caregivers with education and hands-on guidance

When symptoms escalate, we’re already there.

Crossroads teams include clinicians who are trained specifically in caring for patients with cardiac disease. This expertise allows us to respond quickly to changes in condition, anticipate symptom escalation, and support both patients and caregivers through each stage of the disease.

When symptoms intensify, Crossroads is available 24/7/365 to support patients, families, and care teams. That means cardiac-related medications available in the home, continuous care during periods of acute symptom escalation and rapid clinical response to prevent unnecessary hospital transfers.

Support for patients. And the people around them.

In addition to clinical management, Crossroads supports the emotional, spiritual, and psychosocial needs of patients and caregivers. This means support with difficult conversations before and during hospice care, as well as grief support for families after.

Built to partner with your care team, every day of the year.
