About Us

Compassionate Care,
Right Where You Call Home

Phoebe Sumter Hospice is a locally owned and operated hospice agency rooted in the heart of Sumter County. We were founded on a simple conviction: that the final chapter of life should be surrounded by comfort, respect, and genuine human connection.

Our interdisciplinary team — physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers — works as one unified support system. We meet patients and families where they are, whether that's a private residence, a assisted living community, or a family member's home.

Based at 126 E Furlow St in Americus, we are proud to serve our neighbors with the same warmth and dedication that has defined our community for generations.

Comprehensive Support
for Every Need

Hospice care is more than medical treatment — it's a full spectrum of support designed to ease physical symptoms, lift emotional burdens, and honor the unique story of every person we serve.

Pain & Symptom Management

Expert clinical care focused on keeping patients comfortable. Our nurses and physicians work closely to manage pain, nausea, breathing difficulties, and other symptoms with personalized treatment plans.

Emotional & Spiritual Support

Our social workers and chaplains provide counseling, grief preparation, and spiritual care tailored to each patient's beliefs and values — helping everyone find peace and meaning.

Family & Caregiver Guidance

Caring for a loved one is deeply rewarding and deeply challenging. We offer education, respite resources, and ongoing support so caregivers never feel alone on this journey.

Grief & Bereavement Care

Our support continues long after your loved one has passed. We offer structured grief counseling and support groups for families, helping you navigate loss with compassion and community.

In-Home Hospice Care

Most of our care takes place in the comfort of the patient's own home. Our team visits regularly and is available by phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — because need doesn't keep business hours.

Medication & Medical Supplies

We coordinate all hospice-related medications and medical equipment — from wound care supplies to hospital beds — so there are no out-of-pocket surprises and nothing to worry about.

Words from Those
We've Had the Honor to Serve

The families we serve share their experiences with gratitude — not because the journey was easy, but because they never faced it alone.

The nurses and aides treated my mother like family. They were gentle, patient, and genuinely present — not just doing a job, but caring with their whole hearts. We couldn't have asked for a better team.

What struck me most was how the social worker checked in on us — the family. We were exhausted and overwhelmed, and having someone who truly listened made an enormous difference during the hardest time of our lives.
