Peachtree Hospice

Peachtree Hospice is part of Piedmont's healthcare system and offers hospice services for patients and families needing end-of-life support, and the care here is shaped by a goal to make a positive difference in the community, so you'll find physicians, nurses, and trained staff dedicated to patient comfort and dignity, and you'll see that patients get care in the setting they prefer with services like pain management and symptom control. The organization is a not-for-profit, and they cover a wide range of medical care, so along with hospice, folks have access to emergency care, rehabilitation, cancer care from a team of specialists, bariatrics, sleep care, diabetes support, pulmonary services, regular imaging, surgery-including robotic and thoracic-or other specialties like brain tumor care and transplant surgery, which makes things easier for families who want high-quality medical options close to home. There are primary care providers who help people keep up with regular health, and for expectant mothers and babies, there are personalized maternity services. Memory care is available for seniors dealing with Alzheimer's or dementia, and those programs have secure areas, 24-hour help, and memory-focused activities, while some locations have skilled nursing with regular round-the-clock care, rehabilitation therapy, wound care, and other nursing needs. There's assistance for daily activities, managing medicine, meals, and personal care if someone needs assisted living, or for people who can manage more on their own, there are independent living options with simple amenities, social things to do, and maintenance-free spaces, plus there are smaller board and care homes in neighborhoods for those who like a quieter, more home-like setting. The facility supports families along the way with volunteer groups, support groups, and comfort-focused amenities, and there are many ways people help through the PeopleCare Advisory Council or giving programs. When it comes to health, they keep things simple and accessible, with shorter wait times, open hours even on evenings and weekends, and urgent care, including telehealth and in-person visits for everything from small injuries to complex treatments. Safety and quality matter, so there are accreditation programs, Safety First, lab testing, updated equipment such as digital x-rays and in-house labs, and health records support using EpicCare Link and other tools for provider access, plus easy after-visit services like paying bills, getting records, or connecting with support teams. Across Georgia, with over seventy locations, including centers connected to Emory Healthcare Network for quick referrals, the idea is to provide care in a way that works for different needs, and also give people the chance to join community programs, events, or get involved in health education and outreach, especially as needs change in later life. The goal at Peachtree Hospice is to help patients and their families through every stage of aging, from routine check-ups to urgent care to end-of-life support, always paying attention to comfort and personalized care.
