Everhaven Hospice brings expert, dignified care to patients and families in the comfort of home, wherever home may be.
Everhaven Hospice was founded by a group of seasoned hospice professionals to create a safe haven for patients, families, employees, and community partners. Each member of the Everhaven team shares a desire to serve with compassion, integrity, and genuine care.
We strive to be a valued resource in the community to individuals, families, and caregivers facing the unique physical, emotional, and spiritual needs that arise at end-of-life.
We don't believe end-of-life care should feel institutional or impersonal. Our interdisciplinary team — nurses, physicians, social workers, chaplains, and aides — wraps around each patient and family with coordinated, compassionate support that honors your values, your wishes, and your dignity.
Every person deserves to live fully, right to the very end.
Hospice is a type of compassionate, comfort-focused care for individuals in the final stages of a serious or terminal illness — when a medical professional identifies that a person's life expectancy is approximately six months or less and curative treatment is no longer effective or desired. The goal of hospice is to enhance quality of life, relieve pain, and support the emotional, spiritual, and practical needs of both the patient and their loved ones.
Hospice is not giving up. It is choosing comfort, quality of life, and the support your family deserves.
Whole-person care at every level. Here is what our interdisciplinary team includes.
Coordinates care with the hospice team to ensure pain and symptoms are properly managed. In most cases, the Hospice MD will act as the patient's attending physician once admitted to hospice.
Specializes in pain and symptom management to ensure patients have proper medications, medical equipment and supplies through routine visits and open communication. Coordinates care with the full team, family, and community partners.
Assists with bathing, dressing, and other basic hygiene needs. CNAs also provide basic education to caregivers in an effort to prioritize the patient's safety and dignity.
Advocates for a patient's end-of-life values and desires, assists with community resources, and acts as a source of supportive counsel for the patient and family while helping to navigate difficult emotions.
Provides spiritual and emotional support to patients and families, regardless of religious beliefs or spiritual backgrounds. Chaplains provide companionship and support to bring comfort, peace, and meaning during the end-of-life journey.
Our Bereavement Coordinator provides grief support to the family and loved ones after a patient passes. Hospice Volunteers provide non-medical, compassionate support through companionship visits and practical assistance.
If you're noticing any of these signs in yourself or a loved one, it may be time to explore hospice. Reaching out is not giving up — it's choosing support.

Understanding hospice care can feel overwhelming. Here are answers to the questions families ask most often.
Hospice care is specialized medical care focused on comfort, dignity, and quality of life for people facing a life-limiting illness. Rather than pursuing curative treatments, hospice provides expert pain management, emotional support, and spiritual care — allowing patients to live as fully and comfortably as possible.
Hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance plans. The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers virtually all hospice-related services, including medications for symptom management, medical equipment, nursing visits, and more — typically at no cost to the patient or family.
Hospice care is provided wherever the patient calls home — whether that's a private residence, assisted living facility, nursing home, or other care setting. Our team comes to the patient, bringing comfort and support directly to them.
Not at all. Choosing hospice is choosing to focus on what matters most — comfort, presence, and quality time with loved ones. It's a courageous, loving decision that prioritizes the patient's wishes and well-being. Many families say they wish they had started hospice sooner.
If a patient has a life-limiting illness and curative treatments are no longer effective or desired, it may be time to consider hospice. Common signs include frequent hospitalizations, declining function, unmanaged pain, or a physician's prognosis of six months or less. Our team can help you evaluate whether hospice is appropriate.
Yes. Patients may revoke hospice at any time if they choose to pursue curative treatment, and they can return to hospice care later if needed. Hospice is a flexible benefit designed to serve the patient's evolving needs.
Our interdisciplinary team includes a physician medical director, registered nurses, certified nursing assistants, licensed clinical social workers, chaplains, bereavement counselors, and trained volunteers — all working together to support the patient and family.
In many cases, hospice care can begin within 24 to 48 hours of a referral. In urgent situations, we can often initiate care the same day. Call us at 770-450-0149, and we'll guide you through the process.
Whether you're considering hospice for a loved one or need answers to your questions, our compassionate team is here for you — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
