Find the Right Hospice Care in Northwest Arkansas
About 2 hospices currently serve Northwest Arkansas, including 1 nonprofit and 1 with a dedicated inpatient facility. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Northwest Arkansas is a scan of several hospital cities, not a coverage area. Mercy Hospital is in Rogers. Washington Regional Medical Center is in Fayetteville. Northwest Medical Center is in Springdale. Baxter Regional Medical Center is in Mountain Home, and North Arkansas Regional Medical Center is in Harrison. A Rogers list is not a Fayetteville plan, and a Fayetteville list is not a Mountain Home plan. Start with the patient's city or county, then ask who would send the first nurse to that street after the discharge desk closes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Northwest Arkansas
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Northwest Arkansas?
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 Northwest Arkansas?
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 Northwest Arkansas?
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 Northwest Arkansas?
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 Northwest Arkansas one hospice area?
No. It is a way to look across nearby communities. The address decides the team.
Which page for Rogers?
The Rogers page. Use a county page when the home is outside the city.

Where hospice care happens across Northwest Arkansas
Most hospice here happens at home. A short inpatient stay is for symptoms that cannot be managed in the house. Ask which bed, and which city it is in.
Local considerations for Northwest Arkansas families
Bentonville, Bella Vista, and Siloam Springs do not share Mercy's campus. Siloam Springs is near Oklahoma, which is a different license. Say the city before you compare.
The region runs from the northwest corner down through the hills. A team that covers I-49 between Rogers and Springdale has not agreed to a Baxter County address. Ask.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- Mercy is in Rogers; Washington Regional Medical Center is in Fayetteville
- Northwest Medical Center is in Springdale
- Mountain Home and Harrison are their own hospital cities
- Start with the city or the county, not the region
Northwest Arkansas is a regional hub, not a coverage promise. Open the patient’s city or county before you enroll.
