Find the Right Hospice Care in Duluth, Georgia
About 107 hospices currently serve Duluth, including 12 nonprofits and 5 with dedicated inpatient facilities. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Duluth is a Gwinnett County city in Metro Atlanta, on the north side, touching the Fulton and Hall lines. Northside Hospital Duluth is here. Northside Gwinnett in Lawrenceville is the larger Gwinnett campus, and Emory Johns Creek is across the Fulton line. Pleasant Hill, Sugarloaf, and Buford Highway are different nights. A Duluth address can mean the city or a Gwinnett subdivision people only call Duluth. Suwanee and Sugar Hill are the next cities north. Peachtree Corners is south. Buford straddles Gwinnett and Hall. Ask which city and which county are on the deed. A Johns Creek team is Fulton until someone confirms they cross into Gwinnett. Pleasant Hill after dark is not a Sugar Hill driveway and not an Emory Johns Creek driveway.

Every listing here is a Medicare-certified hospice that reports serving Duluth. The office might be elsewhere in Georgia — that is common. When you call, share your loved one’s address so the team can confirm they can come to you. FindHospices.com is free for families.
Other important resources for Duluth families
Families in Duluth often discover that choosing a hospice is only one part of the journey. Questions about funeral arrangements, cremation, estate planning, elder law, probate, advance directives, veterans’ benefits, and other important decisions frequently arise at the same time.
Placements are limited and selective — we review applications and only accept organizations that meet our standards for this section. Listings are paid advertising, not recommendations or endorsements. Families review the information and choose professionals for themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Duluth
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Duluth?
No. A hospital or physician can share names they work with often. You may still compare any Medicare-certified hospice that will come to the patient’s address. Calling for information does not enroll you.
Should we contact more than one hospice about Duluth?
Yes. Compare who covers the exact address, how soon a nurse can get there, and who answers after hours. A referral is a starting point, not a requirement to use one brand.
Can hospice care be provided at home in Duluth?
Yes. Most hospice care happens where the patient already lives — a house or apartment, or assisted living, memory care, or a nursing facility. Ask the team to confirm that specific address, not only the city or county name.
How quickly can hospice start in Duluth?
When hospice is medically appropriate, many teams begin within about 24–48 hours, and some can start the same day when staffing allows. Ask who comes first and how a night call is handled. Then verify by phone.
Is Northside Hospital Duluth actually in Duluth?
Yes. Duluth has Northside Hospital Duluth in the city, which is not true of every nearby Gwinnett city. That makes discharge local and the house call a separate step. Ask which hospice will come to the Duluth address and whether their nurse is the same person they would send to Sugar Hill, Suwanee, or Norcross. The hospital can suggest teams. You confirm the door and the night plan.
Could a search land on Duluth, Minnesota?
It can. Say Duluth, Gwinnett County, GA, and mention Northside Hospital Duluth if you were there. Minnesota’s Duluth is a Great Lakes city and has nothing to do with this ZIP. Ask the hospice to repeat Georgia. Sugar Hill, Suwanee, and Norcross are the other Gwinnett cities families mix with this one, and each still needs its own address check if the patient might stay there.
Hospice Care in Duluth
Finding hospice care in Duluth
Northside Hospital Duluth is in Duluth, so many families start the hospice talk on that campus and finish it at a Gwinnett County house. The hospital’s suggestions are leads. Ask who visits the Duluth address, including nights, and whether the same nurse covers Sugar Hill, Suwanee, or Norcross. Those are separate Gwinnett cities. A Duluth ZIP near the hospital is not a Sugar Hill ZIP toward the lake. Say the city on the mailbox. If a website starts describing Minnesota, you have the wrong Duluth. Make them say Gwinnett County, Georgia, and the street before you compare how fast they can start.
What to compare
When you call, ask about:
- Home coverage in Duluth after Northside Hospital Duluth
- Sugar Hill, Suwanee, and Norcross asked as separate Gwinnett cities
- A Georgia answer that rules out Duluth, Minnesota
- Night response from the office they name, not a county-wide guess
Where hospice care happens in Duluth
Hospice visits should be at the Duluth home or a facility in Duluth after Northside Hospital Duluth, unless you name another Gwinnett city. Sugar Hill, Suwanee, and Norcross are not nicknames for Duluth. Minnesota is the wrong state. The hospital being in town helps the discharge; it still does not pick the hospice.
Local considerations for Duluth families
This directory currently lists about 107 Medicare-certified hospices that serve Duluth. That count is who can come to an address here, not how many offices sit inside one city.
This Duluth is Gwinnett County in metro Atlanta, not Duluth, Minnesota. Northside Hospital Duluth anchors the local hospital conversation. Sugar Hill lies toward Lake Lanier, Suwanee sits nearby, and Norcross is farther south in the same county. Lawrenceville is the county seat and not the same night drive. If the patient will be at a child’s house in one of those cities, ask with that city in the sentence. Gwinnett is large. A single county yes hides too many doors. Use the city name the nurse must type.
The hospital in Duluth is a real campus, and it is still not Lawrenceville and not Emory Johns Creek. A family can be discharged from any of the three and drive home to a different city. Sugar Hill, Suwanee, and Buford have their own pages. If the house is on the Hall County side of Buford, say Hall. The Pleasant Hill retail strip is not a neighborhood shortcut after dark. Ask whether the nurse is based at Northside Duluth or coming from Lawrenceville, and how long the west side toward Peachtree Corners takes compared with the streets closer to I-85.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- Confirm the exact street or ZIP in Duluth — a city or region name on a brochure is not coverage
- Ask how long a nurse typically takes to reach that address after hours
- Clarify assisted-living or nursing-facility relationships if care would start in a building
- Open the Gwinnett County page when the home sits outside the city limits
- Use the Metro Atlanta hub only to scan, then come back to the patient’s city or county
This page is focused on Duluth itself. Nearby cities and Gwinnett County can help if your family is looking across more than one community.
Where to start
Use the patient’s exact address, then open a tighter page if the home is in Gwinnett County, Peachtree Corners, Lawrenceville, Sugar Hill, Metro Atlanta.
