Find the Right Hospice Care in Monroe, Louisiana
About 17 hospices currently serve Monroe. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Finding hospice care in Monroe often begins after St. Francis Medical Center in Monroe. Names you hear on the hospital floor are a useful starting list for your calls — not the only hospice you can choose. The Ouachita River separates Monroe from West Monroe, and a night visit can mean a bridge on a quiet two lane or on I-20. Sterlington, Calhoun, and the rural roads toward the Arkansas line are different drives, and West Monroe has its own page. Use this page to compare Medicare-certified hospices that report serving Monroe, then confirm the neighborhood. If the home is in West Monroe, Sterlington, or another Ouachita Parish community, start on that page instead of assuming every Monroe listing fits.
We are a free, independent resource created by healthcare professionals to help Louisiana families navigate hospice and end-of-life decisions. We bring together hospice provider comparisons, Medicare quality data, our Hospice Education Center, and trusted community resources so families can better understand their options and take the next step with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Monroe
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Monroe?
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 Monroe?
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 Monroe?
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 Monroe?
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 West Monroe the same hospice list as Monroe?
No. West Monroe is a separate city across the Ouachita River. Ask whether the team will send a nurse to that street after dark.
Is the hospital in Monroe near West Monroe?
St. Francis Medical Center is in Monroe. Glenwood Regional Medical Center is in West Monroe. Ask which campus the stay was at before you plan the drive.
Hospice Care in Monroe
Finding hospice care in Monroe
A name from St. Francis Medical Center in Monroe is a phone call, not an assigned hospice. 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 parish 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 Monroe
Most hospice in Monroe happens at home or in a care facility. A short inpatient stay is for symptoms that cannot be managed in the house. Ask which bed they would use, and who answers when pain breaks through at night.
Local considerations for Monroe families
Monroe feels like one city with West Monroe and then the river changes the whole route. Ask which side the nurse lives on, and whether a visit takes ten minutes or forty after midnight. Say the street and the parish when you call.
A stay at St. Francis in Monroe can go home to a Ouachita Parish road that is far from the hospital. If the address is outside the city limits, ask whether the nurse would drive that far at night.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- St. Francis Medical Center is in Monroe
- West Monroe is across the Ouachita River and has its own page
- Sterlington and Calhoun are different drives
- Ask about I-20 and the river bridges after midnight
This page is focused on Monroe itself. Nearby cities and Ouachita Parish 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 Ouachita Parish, West Monroe, North Louisiana.
