Abbey Hospice

Abbey Hospice is an independently owned and operated hospice care provider located in Social Circle, Georgia. Founded in 2000, the facility has provided end-of-life care and bereavement support services to the local community for over two decades. It serves a 17-county region within a 50-mile radius, including Walton, Newton, Gwinnett, Rockdale, Morgan, and Jasper counties. The organization is well-regarded in the region, frequently being voted 'Best in Hospice Care' in Walton County. What sets Abbey Hospice apart is its dedicated 12-room, 13-bed inpatient unit, which offers a peaceful and homelike environment for short-term symptom management and respite care. Their multidisciplinary team includes physicians, nurses, hospice aides, social workers, and chaplains who focus on the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of both the patient and their family. In addition to clinical care, Abbey Hospice is known for its extensive bereavement program, which includes 13 months of follow-up support, memorial services, and 'Camp Journey,' a specialized grief camp for children and teenagers. Abbey Hospice is Medicare and Medicaid certified (Provider #11-1530) and maintains active memberships in the Georgia Hospice & Palliative Care Organization (GHPCO) and the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO). The facility operates with a philosophy of treating the person and the symptoms of the disease rather than the disease itself, ensuring that patients can spend their final days with dignity and surrounded by loved ones.
