“The FGH Foundation is a vehicle for the things the hospital cannot do alone. There are so many things that we can do in gratitude for what Forrest General has done for this community.”
— Joe Paul, Foundation Board of Directors Chair
The Asbury Hospice House, located on 40th Avenue, offers a home-like setting where staff can address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of each patient and their family. This inpatient facility provides a comforting atmosphere where families can gather and prepare in dignity. From the moment you enter through the welcoming doors, families will find spacious patient rooms, dining and kitchen facilities, a comfortable family room, meditation room, and garden all coupled with the best available care. The Asbury Hospice House is designed to provide for every aspect of care a family may need when facing the terminal illness of their loved one. At life’s end, the idea of care circles around a different philosophy. While we all seek the familiarity of home and family, in many circumstances, a patient’s needs dictate the shape and nature of care. Asbury Hospice House gives patients and families the opportunity to be together while maintaining the highest level of care and comfort. To learn more about the facility or inquire about care and treatment for a loved one, please call Forrest General Home Care and Hospice at 1-800-844-4663.
The Bill and Becky Oliver Healing Garden at Forrest General’s Cancer Center will offer patients, loved ones and visitors a quiet, outdoor space away from treatment areas. The Garden will be open to all, every day from dawn to dusk. Its purpose is to help reduce the stresses of illness and hospitalization. The Healing Garden encourages calm, comfort, and relaxation. Here, you can spend times alone to think, rest, and regain emotional and physical energy.
