Welcome
Hello, I’m Debra Pruitt, President of Hospice of the Shoals and, on behalf of the entire Hospice of the Shoals staff, I’d like to welcome you to our website. Our goal is to provide you with information designed to help, no matter what role you play in end-of-life care. If you are presently providing care for someone in a home-setting, there is a large amount of information just for you under ‘Patients and Families’. If you are a Healthcare Professional looking for information to help you provide care for your patients, there is a special section just for you. And, if you are here because you are interested in volunteering with or donating to Hospice of the Shoals, please visit our ‘How Can I Help’ section. And, before you leave, please take a moment to provide us with any feedback you see fit. If you found the website useful, let us know. If you can think of ways in which we might make it even more helpful, we’d be just as eager to hear about that. And, if you are one of the many individuals and families in our area who have had experience with Hospice of the Shoals, we’d love to hear from you. Please tell us about that experience.
Our goal with this website, just as in everything we do, is to serve our community in the most effective manner possible.
We hope you’ll allow us to serve you.

News & Events
Hospice of the Shoals is pleased to announce our newest way of helping individuals and families in our community, the “Caring Hearts Home Assistance Program”.
“Caring Hearts” is a palliative care service designed to assist individuals who do not yet qualify for hospice care but who do need support and guidance as they deal with the physical, emotional, and spiritual distress inherent to a life-limiting illness.
It is also just one example of the difference ‘NOT-FOR-PROFIT’ makes. Any excess funds WE generate stay in our organization instead of going into the pockets of an owner or group of stockholders. This allows us to provide not only a uniquely high level of care, but much-needed programs such as ‘Caring Hearts’ as well.
