Columbus Hospice
Columbus Hospice is a Medicare-certified hospice provider serving Columbus, Georgia 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.

I love volunteering at Columbus Hospice. My precious Daddy passed away 11 years ago. Hospice was so wonderful during his illness and after he passed away. This is my way of giving back to other families going though hard times. I love making memory bears for families.
The service that was provided to my dad during his transition was excellent. I want to acknowledge the following for their services rendered. Linda Lowe(CNA), Joyce(RN) all others. Thank you again you really showed compassion for me as well.
I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the incredible team at Columbus Hospice for the compassionate care they provided my beloved mother, Julia Carter. In one of the hardest seasons of our lives, their kindness brought us peace. A special thank you to Shameika Averett, whose warmth and guidance led us to a place where my mother was truly embraced with love. Our hearts will always carry the comfort and care you gave us, and we are forever grateful. — Frederick Hill
Columbus Hospice is a God-send. They helped with my father’s terminal illness and now are helping my mother. The care and services they provide are superb.
Columbus Hospice is simply the best. My dad was on their services, and spent his last eight days on this earth in their hospice house. They loved him and my family well. Words can’t express my appreciation and gratitude for their love and support during a difficult season.
