ShepherdCare Hospice is now Aveanna Hospice.

We are pleased to inform you that ShepherdCare Hospice is now Aveanna Hospice. Aveanna is one of the largest providers of homecare in the nation, bringing care to more than 50,000 patients every day. We want to assure you that your family remains in good hands and will continue to receive all the care and compassion you’ve come to expect.

Aveanna Hospice provides the medical and emotional support needed for patients and their loved ones. Taking care of a loved one with a life-limiting illness is never easy, but you don’t have to do it alone.

How we live is important when we approach the end of our lives. With Aveanna Hospice, we focus on the medical aspects of care, so you don’t have to. We listen and focus on what we can do to help our patients live as well as possible — managing pain and symptoms, providing the physical, social, emotional, and spiritual support for the patient and the family. With our team of physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and home health aides, we work with the patient and family to provide what is needed for comfort and support. We provide medications and equipment related to your loved one’s hospice diagnosis and we offer 24-hour on-call support for emergencies. This allows patients and families to focus on what is important – the relationships and memories that can be made by living each day as well as possible.
