In 1983, the dream of building a caring hospice ministry began to unfold as a small staff and loving volunteers began providing hospice home care from a Sunday School classroom at Southwest Christian Church in East Point, Georgia. The current hospice facility was built in 1987 – the first inpatient hospice in the state of Georgia – and is located on fourteen beautifully landscaped acres in Union City. Southwest Christian Care currently operates as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization under the direction of a Board of Directors.
Southwest Christian Care provides loving and quality healthcare for those facing end of life in our Hospice, nurturing intervention, education and respite care for medically fragile children at Hope House, and supportive comfort to Seniors as they are challenged with loneliness or memory loss. It remains our ultimate desire to reduce the stress, worry and financial burdens on families so that they may be in a stronger position to care for each other.
For this reason, we continue to never charge for our service. We do not subject families to the rigors of navigating insurance, Medicaid or Medicare coverage while in our care—we just want them to focus solely on their loved ones.
Our staff is able to spend more one-on-one time with each guest instead of being tasked with the burden of completing mountains of paperwork in billing for services provided. Through generous and charitable champions of our mission, we are able to make a tremendous impact on the families we serve through excellent quality care.
