Hospice care focuses on caring, not curing.
We provide the support and assistance that let patients and families live with dignity — and that give patients and caregivers a real say in decisions about care.
Our Philosophy
At Oasis Hospice and Palliative Care, we believe quality care begins with empowering those who are by the patient's side the most. That's why we cultivate our team members and equip caregivers with the knowledge, confidence, and compassion needed to provide exceptional care. When everyone feels supported, the patient receives the best possible care.
What is Hospice?
Hospice is a comprehensive, holistic program of care and support for terminally ill patients and their families. Hospice care changes the focus to comfort care (palliative care) for pain relief and symptom management instead of care to cure the patient's illness.
Hospice care is a set of services provided in the home, free-standing hospice facilities, nursing homes, and other long-term care facilities to patients with a life-limiting illness.

Meet Your Care Team
Oasis Hospice and Palliative Care is dedicated to providing a holistic approach to care for the patient and family. Your care team is made up of professional and experienced individuals who create and execute your care plan.
The medical director is a Georgia licensed physician responsible for overseeing the patient's hospice care. The medical director reviews each patient's plan of care to make sure all needs are being met in the best possible way.
All hospice nursing services are based on patient need and performed under a plan of care for that patient. All Oasis Hospice and Palliative Care nurses are licensed professionals specifically trained to do hospice nursing.
A certified nursing assistant (CNA) can visit on a regular schedule if you choose and is approved by the doctor. The CNA can provide personal hygiene care, such as bathing, washing hair, brushing teeth, giving back rubs, providing skin care, and changing bed linens as well as light housekeeping tasks.
Spiritual care needs are assessed by our chaplain, who will visit, or coordinate visits with other clergy, according to the wishes of the patient and family.
Our social workers offer emotional support, counseling, and coordination of community resources and support services, as well as helping with final arrangements.
Our trained volunteers do many things for patients and their families such as, light housework, cooking, running errands, and providing general companionship.
The only thing I regret about hospice with my mom is not starting the service sooner.
