Hospice Support Care
Hospice support care at home in metro Atlanta
Hospice teams visit, but they are not in the home around the clock. Families are often left covering long days and nights at the hardest time of their lives.
CareBridge caregivers fill those hours. We work alongside your hospice nurses and aides so your loved one is comfortable and never alone, and so the family can rest and be present.

Questions families ask
Hospice Support Care: common questions
Does hospice not already provide this?+
Hospice provides nursing, aide visits, equipment and support, but usually not continuous hours in the home. CareBridge adds the hours in between.
Can you start quickly?+
We understand time matters. Call (404) 917-3101 and we will do everything we can to start as soon as a caregiver is available in your area.
Do you work with every hospice?+
We work alongside any hospice provider in Georgia and follow their plan of care.
How do families pay for care?+
CareBridge is a private pay home care agency. Families pay directly, and we also work with long-term care insurance and veterans benefits where they apply. We do not accept Medicare or Medicaid, including the NOW and COMP waivers.
