My T has offered extra sessions when some bad things happened in sequence. It was a frightening time and she was supportive. But that's it and she makes it clear not to expect more.

Her contract with clients details how she'll charge $ for work done outside sessions including phone calls, making copies of records, visits to home or hospital or (more happily) a family event under extraordinary circumstances that must be documented in advance. I assume there are more forms for documenting that work and logging chargeable hours.

In other words she makes it clear to her clients that the scope of work IS negotiable, but it is contractual and fee-based.

Ah well. If I wind up in the hospital or jailhouse, I have a personal network that would step in to help.

Anyway. Always interesting to see the range of responses among PC folks about thing therapists do/dont do for clients.
