About 34 hospices currently serve Livingston Parish, including 4 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. Livingston Parish is wider than Denham Springs. Families often leave a Baton Rouge campus such as Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center or Baton Rouge General, both in Baton Rouge, then go home to Walker, Livingston, or Denham Springs. The Amite River is the line with East Baton Rouge Parish. Hammond is Tangipahoa Parish to the east. Use this parish page for Livingston and every other community in Livingston Parish, or when someone may leave a hospital for a home in a different town. Ask which team would send the first nurse to that street after the discharge desk closes. A Baton Rouge team is not automatically a Livingston Parish team.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Livingston Parish
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Livingston Parish?
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 Livingston Parish?
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 Livingston Parish?
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 Livingston Parish?
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 Livingston Parish part of Baton Rouge?
No. Livingston Parish is its own parish across the Amite River. Ask whether a Baton Rouge team would send a nurse to that street after dark.
Is Denham Springs the whole parish?
No. Walker, Watson, and other communities are separate drives. Ask about the exact address.

Local considerations for Livingston Parish families

The parish seat is Livingston, a small town on Highway 190. Denham Springs has its own page. Ask whether a call after midnight reaches someone who knows the I-12 corridor.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- Denham Springs has its own page
- The hospitals families name first are in Baton Rouge
- The Amite River is the line with East Baton Rouge Parish
- Walker and Watson are different drives
