Statement on President Carter's Health

Feb. 18, 2023

ATLANTA (Feb. 18, 2023) -- After a series of short hospital stays,
former U.S. President Jimmy Carter today decided to spend his
remaining time at home with his family and receive hospice care
instead of additional medical intervention. He has the full support
of his family and his medical team. The Carter family asks for
privacy during this time and is grateful for the concern shown by his
many admirers.
