Hospice Care Options We provide compassionate care to the terminally ill patient, allowing death with peace and dignity.

“Service to our neighbors in need”

Those simple few words uttered by Georgia pharmacist, Freddie Dwozan, has been the guiding credo of the organization since the start of the original hospice agency in 1997. Each of our team members holds our founding theme of service to others above self as the most fundamental principal in their daily activities. Our focus is to help our patients and families during this difficult time with the talents and skills we possess. We place all our efforts
here in the Georgia communities in which we each live and work, to serve our neighbors and fellow Georgians. We humbly respect the stewardship responsibility we have in this endeavor. Many hospice agencies exist, but Hospice Care Options is unique. It is one of a handful of family owned agencies in the state. All decisions are made locally at the agency level, not in a corporate office in another state. The company operates in 41 Georgia counties with agencies located in Eastman, Macon, Warner Robins, Milledgeville, and Ocilla. They have a large reach, with the most caring and skillful staff found anywhere. Hospice Care Options is your best choice to provide care and comfort when faced with a life limiting illness.

Most people benefit from talking to someone after losing a loved one, and there's no wrong time to ask for help.

Some signs it might be time to reach out include trouble sleeping, pulling away from friends and family, or feeling stuck in sadness or guilt that won't lift. Grief counseling isn't about fixing your grief. It's about having someone walk with you while you carry it.

The Hospice Care Options bereavement team is available to anyone in our community, whether or not your loved one was in our care. View more common signs of grief and find support when you're ready: https://hcoga.com/services/grief-counseling-and-support/

Most people experience some version of the five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. They rarely arrive in order, and there's no set amount of time to spend in any of them. Some days you might feel angry and sad within the same hour, and that's normal too. Healing isn't a straight line. Read the full article for more on each stage: https://hcoga.com/blog/5-stages-of-grief/

If you need someone to talk to along the way, find support through our bereavement team.

Help us give a big thank you to Fincher's Barbecue!

When our Chaplain, Curtis Singleton, shared that one of our patients — after a period of not wanting to get out much — was hoping to go out to eat, Patrick Strickland, manager of Fincher's, stepped up. He provided a gift card so the patient's family could enjoy a meal out together without worrying about the cost.

This kind of compassion can mean the world to a patient nearing the end of life, as well as to their family.

We are so grateful for this generous gift and the difference it made for our patient and their family. Thank you again to Fincher's Barbecue and Manager Patrick Strickland!

Children don't always have the words for what they're feeling after a loss.

Camp Good Grief gives them something better: a community. This program brings children and teens who've experienced loss together in a supportive environment where they can feel understood, heard, and less alone.

Hospice Care Options is proud to offer this resource to our families and community every summer. Learn more at: https://hcoga.com/services/camp-good-grief/
