Mission Statement

Blue summit Hospice is seeking volunteers to provide company, companionship, and comfort during one of life's most important journeys.

Description

At Blue Summit Hospice and Palliative Care, we strive to be different, a Georgia hospice staffed by caring medical professionals who understand the stress and uncertainty that accompanies this journey. We address this with personalized teaching and care plans that bring the focus back to a celebration of life with a cherished loved one, rather than just a medical visit.

From the beginning of our company, we have relied on our team’s extensive knowledge, and we know that top-quality hospice care can only happen when the staff is ready for the task. By focusing on our staff’s professional development and professionalism, we have built a highly educated, supremely compassionate team who are focused on helping our patients and families live each day to the fullest. We believe in a celebration of life.
