Find the Right Hospice Care in Terrebonne Parish
About 14 hospices currently serve Terrebonne Parish. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Terrebonne Parish is wider than the city of Houma. Families often leave Terrebonne General Medical Center in Houma, then go home to Gray, Bourg, Montegut, or a camp along Bayou Little Caillou. Thibodaux is Lafourche Parish, a half hour east on Highway 20. Use the Houma page when the home is inside that city. Use this parish page when the address is another community in Terrebonne Parish, or when someone may leave a hospital for a home that is not in that city. Ask which team would send the first nurse to that street after the discharge desk closes. A Houma team is not automatically a team for the end of every bayou road.
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 Terrebonne Parish
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Terrebonne 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 Terrebonne 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 Terrebonne 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 Terrebonne 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.
Does a Houma team cover all of Terrebonne Parish?
Do not assume so. The south end is a long night drive. Ask whether the team would send a nurse to that street after dark.
Is Thibodaux part of Terrebonne Parish?
No. Thibodaux is in Lafourche Parish.
Hospice Care in Terrebonne Parish
Finding hospice care in Terrebonne Parish
A name from Terrebonne General in Houma is a starting list, not a plan for every road in the parish. FindHospices.com is free for families.
What families often compare across the county
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 Terrebonne Parish
Most hospice in Terrebonne Parish 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 how far a nurse drives at night.
Local considerations for Terrebonne Parish families
Terrebonne Parish is long and narrow, and the road south toward Cocodrie can be an hour from the hospital. Drawbridges and storm closures change a night visit.
Ask where the nurse lives and whether the team has staff along the bayou. Say the street and the parish when you call, and confirm the first night visit is on the table.
When you are comparing, it often helps to:
- Houma has its own page
- Terrebonne General Medical Center is in Houma
- Chauvin, Dulac, and Cocodrie are long night drives
- Thibodaux is Lafourche Parish
This page is the county-wide list for Terrebonne Parish. Use a city page when you already know the community, or Acadiana and Southwest Louisiana only to scan the wider region.
Where to start
