Find the Right Hospice Care in Jacksonville, Arkansas
About 22 hospices currently serve Jacksonville, including 5 nonprofits and 1 with a dedicated inpatient facility. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Finding hospice care in Jacksonville often begins after Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock, or a Little Rock hospital. There is no hospital in Jacksonville that most families name first. Names you hear on the hospital floor are a useful starting list for your calls — not the only hospice you can choose. J.P. Wright Loop, the Air Force base gates, and Highway 67 change a night visit. On-base housing and a street in the city are not the same instructions. Use this page to compare Medicare-certified hospices that report serving Jacksonville, then confirm the neighborhood. If the home is in Sherwood or North Little Rock, start on that page.
We are a free, independent resource created by healthcare professionals to help Arkansas families navigate hospice and end-of-life decisions.

Other important resources for Jacksonville families
Families in Jacksonville 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 Jacksonville
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Jacksonville?
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 Jacksonville?
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 Jacksonville?
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 Jacksonville?
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.
Where is the nearest hospital?
Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock, or the Little Rock hospitals farther south.
Is the base the same as a Jacksonville street?
Give the hospice the actual address. A city street and base housing are different instructions.
Hospice Care in Jacksonville
Finding hospice care in Jacksonville
A north Pulaski discharge still has to name Jacksonville. It is not Sherwood. FindHospices.com is free for families.
What to compare
When you call, ask about:
- Whether the team covers the exact address, not only the city or county name
- Who would come after hours, and how long that usually takes
- What happens if symptoms cannot be managed at home
- Medicare quality and family-experience information on each profile
Where hospice care happens in Jacksonville
Most hospice in Jacksonville happens at home. Ask which bed they would use, and how far that bed is from Highway 67.
Local considerations for Jacksonville families
Jacksonville is its own city in Pulaski County, north of Sherwood. Families leave a North Little Rock or Little Rock hospital and drive up Highway 67. Ask whether the team makes that drive after midnight.
Say if the address is in town or tied to the base. A hospice can cover one and not the other. Do not use a North Little Rock listing as a shortcut.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- There is no hospital in Jacksonville that families name first
- Stays usually start in North Little Rock or Little Rock
- Highway 67 is the night drive
- Sherwood is the city in between, with its own page
This page is focused on Jacksonville itself. Nearby cities and Pulaski 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 Pulaski County, Little Rock, North Little Rock, Sherwood, Central Arkansas.
