Overview of Wellstar Hospice Care at Kennesaw Mountain

Wellstar Hospice Care at Kennesaw Mountain provides hospice care and respite care in Marietta, GA. Hospice care centers on comfort and pain reduction for patients and their families, while respite care gives a family caregiver a short stay away from caregiving responsibilities to travel or recover.

Full service inpatient care is available. Patients can be admitted the same day and have physician and nurse coverage 24 hours a day, so clinical support is available whenever it is needed.

Pain and symptom management address physical needs during care. Medical equipment, caregiver education, spiritual support, social service assessment, and volunteer assistance provide practical and personal support, while ongoing bereavement support continues after a loss.

Pets are allowed, so a resident may have a pet present during care. The community may be a good fit for a patient who needs hospice care in an inpatient setting or for a family caregiver seeking short term respite support.
