Providing Comfort, Care, Support


Chattahoochee Hospice has been providing health services to families in the Greater Valley Area since 1983. We are striving to constantly improve the care and support we provide our patients and their families. 

Hospice services are available for anyone with a life-limiting illness as determined by the patient's physician. We provide these services without regard to race, gender, religion, national origin or financial resources. When the focus of care shifts from cure to comfort, hospice should be considered. Contacting Chattahoochee Hospice early helps you better understand your options and have the most impact on quality of life.

What is Hospice

The hospice concept of health care attempts to make a patient's remaining life as comfortable and meaningful as possible. It is a special kind of healthcare that focuses on keeping the patient comfortable once the patient and physician have decided that the underlying disease can no longer be treated or cured.

Hospice is not a particular place or a person, but a philosophy of care provided by a team of professionals and lay people. Hospice care addresses the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of each patient, family members and care givers so that patients can make the most of their day.
 
Hospice care neither hastens nor postpones death and is focused on the belief that quality of life is as important as length of life. Hospice focuses on caring, not curing, and in most cases care is provided in the patient's home.

What We Offer
​

Generally speaking, people who are terminally ill need care in four areas: physical comfort, mental and emotional needs, spiritual issues, and practical tasks. We offer compassionate and specialized care that helps you live each day to the fullest.
