Now serving the Columbia area

The right choice when life matters most

We are honored to bring our passion for end-of-life support to your community. As a company, we're proud to exceed the national averages for compassionate care.

• On average, our patients receive 2.2 RN visits per week, compared to the national average of 1.7 per week.¹
• 84% of our patients see an RN or MSW on at least two of their final three days of life, compared to the national average of 47%.²
• Our nurse-to-patient ratio prioritizes smaller caseloads to provide more comprehensive care.
• Speed to care—we strive to admit eligible patients within three hours of a referral.

Meet the Gentiva team

It is our privilege to serve the community with more than 30 years of combined hospice care experience. Our dedicated team is proud to call the greater Columbia area home. In fact, some of us have deep roots in the Columbia community. In addition to our hospice expertise, our clinicians have extensive backgrounds in critical care and ER nursing.

Putting people first

We believe that when a family makes the decision for hospice care, you don't make them wait - that means holding ourselves to a higher standard, striving to admit new patients and their families quickly and compassionately. In everything we do, it is our privilege to put people first - from the families we serve to our provider partners throughout the community.
