Peter Abraham, BSN, RN, EOLD, is a registered nurse, end-of-life doula, and author of over 60 evidence-based guides on hospice, palliative care, and end-of-life navigation. His clinical experience includes working in cardiology, medical-surgical units, and long-term care across Pennsylvania, with most of his nursing career focused on rural hospice case management.

Peter consistently observed over the years that hospice workers, nurses, grief professionals, and caregivers were performing demanding tasks without the practical, clinically sound resources they deserve. This observation motivates his writing. His series, including the Empowering Excellence in Hospice, Bridges to Eternity, Holistic Nurse: Skills for Excellence, and the Caregiver Support Series, provides end-of-life professionals and family caregivers with tools grounded in real clinical experience.

For hospice nurses specifically: If you've finished a visit and are unsure whether your documentation would pass a Medicare audit, whether your explanation of eligibility was convincing enough, or whether you handled a difficult family discussion correctly, that uncertainty is the gap nobody warned you about. Peter has successfully managed caseloads with full Medicare compliance, helped a hospice save about $55,000 per patient through meticulous medication management, and has been a keynote speaker at the 2026 South Carolina HAPC Virtual Didactics Conference. He developed the Hospice Nurse Coaching program specifically for this purpose: a focused, one-hour session tailored to your specific situation.

Today, Peter also serves as a Health and Life Navigation Specialist through Compassion Crossing, LLC, supporting patients and families in central Kentucky and virtually nationwide. His work is motivated by his faith and one clear goal: giving every person at the bedside, professional or family, the confidence to show up well. He lives in central Kentucky with his wife, Laura, and their two rescue dogs.
