Overview of Shoals Hospice

Shoals Hospice delivers medical and comfort-focused end-of-life care to patients across the Florence, Alabama region. Under the management of administrator Megan Dixon, the agency operates its administrative coordination center at 115 Helton Ct, having previously served the area under the name Community Care Hospice. The clinical team structures its daily operations to manage physical symptoms and pain while addressing the spiritual and emotional needs of individuals navigating a terminal diagnosis.

The local office sits about three miles from the Florence city center in a neighborhood with a walkability score of 36 out of 100. This low walkability rating indicates a car-dependent area, meaning visiting families and field staff utilize vehicles for regional transit, though the clinical care itself is brought directly to the patient’s residence.

The service framework utilizes licensed nurses, certified nursing assistants, and a structured volunteer program to offer companionship, continuous 24-hour support, and focused comfort management. This multidisciplinary care approach is designed for individuals with a life expectancy of six months or less, shifting the medical focus from curative treatments to maintaining quality of life.

Prospective representatives can initiate an intake review with a coordinator to discuss specific symptom management needs and verify insurance compatibility.
