Amedisys Hospice, an Adventa Company
Amedisys Hospice, an Adventa Company is a Medicare-certified hospice provider serving Chattanooga, Tennessee and surrounding areas. A Medicare-certified hospice provides comfort care and support services to patients with terminal illnesses and their families. Hospice care focuses on quality of life rather than curative treatment.
Hospice care is available to patients whose physician certifies they have a terminal illness with a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course. Patients may receive hospice care at home, in a hospice facility, nursing home, or hospital.
Medicare-certified hospices must provide all four levels of hospice care: routine home care, continuous home care for periods of crisis, general inpatient care for symptom management, and inpatient respite care to give caregivers a break. Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers.
Medicare covers hospice services with no cost to patients for most services, including medications for symptom control, medical equipment, and 24-hour access to care. For more information about hospice benefits, visit Medicare.gov. Compare hospice providers at Medicare Care Compare.
Quality data and provider information are updated periodically by CMS. We recommend verifying current information at Medicare Care Compare.

Amedysis Hospice Care of Chattanooga provided wonderful and compassionate care for our mother during her last months of life. Ethel's main nurse, Alaina, was extremely caring and always available to help. All the other nurses, CNAs, Chaplain Steve, Angela the social worker and the staff were wonderful as well. Not only did they provide excellent care for Ethel, they were extremely helpful, loving, kind and patient with the family. They taught us how to care for her, answered all our questions and quickly took care of all her needs. They encouraged the family and always asked how we were doing. We highly recommend Amedysis Hospice of Chattanooga!
In the short time they have treated my mom like family. Her main nurse is Vikki and she is just the absolute best, it means a lot when they play mom up and make her feel better, but then talk to us to make sure we are ok as a family watching the decline as well and making sure that we are familiar with what will most likely happen as well. Everyone we have had from Amedisys has just been outstanding. We truly, truly appreciate it.
Amedisys took care of my father for nearly 1 1/2 years and they did a wonderful job. These folks are more like dear friends and treated my dad with the upmost in care and respect. Thank you to Candeis, Marcie, Coral, Mike, and Heather and the staff of Amedisys for all that you did to make father's last days as comfortable as possible. God bless
The nurses who worked with my late mother in law were incredible and kind people. The care coordinator answered all of our questions, and made the process really comfortable for everyone involved.
Provided excellent care for my mother. Their service was invaluable for our family.
