Surrounded by Love and Comfort
Colquitt Regional Hospice allows terminally ill patients to spend their last days with dignity in their own homes, surrounded by their loved ones. Our team of trained professionals provides medical care and emotional, spiritual and physical support to patients in the final stages of a terminal illness - and to their families, as well. We emphasize the quality of life, rather that the length of life.

Community Support is Vital
As the need for Hospice care continues to grow, a significant portion of Hospice’s budget comes from community contributions. Each monetary gift, large or small, helps Hospice care for those patients with limited means. Your financial support is tax deductible and memorial donations are acknowledged as requested through the Colquitt Regional Medical Foundation.
Your time and talent are also invaluable to our Hospice program. Individuals may become Hospice Volunteers through our training program, in which volunteers are trained in patient care and bereavement. Our Volunteer Coordinator can tell you more about volunteer opportunities.
Colquitt Regional Hospice is dedicated to serving the community and offers informative programs as a public service. Call us today to request a speaker for your church or civic organization.
