The seed for Texas-based Pallicare was planted at a chance meeting at a 2021 conference between Jonathan Fluhart, a management professional with a background in aerospace, technology, and hospice industries, and nurse practitioner Tiffany Hughes.
Hughes outlined to Fluhart her industry’s need for home-based palliative care, and after a number of communications, the two agreed to join forces to address the gap in services, with Fluhart’s business background complementing Hughes’s practical experience. As a result of their joint efforts, PalliCare became the first company in northeast Texas to offer community-based palliative care.
The organization currently employs nurse practitioners, physicians, nurses, and other specialists who provide in-home care services for patients with serious illnesses.
