Connie | Caring for the Whole Person

CTAC + Apr 27, 2022

Even before the pandemic, Connie was struggling. She had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and, at the same time, was experiencing homelessness. Once she connected with Resolution Care, she was able to obtain the assistance she needed–from Social Security income to housing and critical emotional support. Resolution helped her navigate the often contradictory and confusing health care system and, because much of her treatment was offered virtually, she felt protected and less at risk. Telehealth and palliative care, she says, have “meant the difference between life and death.”

Resolution Care (acquired by Vynca, Inc.) is one of the many C-TAC partners dedicated to helping patients at the end of life receive person- and family-centered care that maintains their dignity and self-determination. As our population ages, the need for palliative care will only grow and with it the need for skilled professionals and the resources to fund it. Join us as we continue to advocate for patients like Connie who depend on these important programs.
