Lincoln County is wider than Brookhaven. King's Daughters Medical Center is in Brookhaven. Jackson and Hattiesburg are farther away and have their own hospitals. I-55 is the spine of the county, and a Brookhaven street is not a county road west of town. Use the Brookhaven page when the home is inside that city. Use this county page when the address is another community in Lincoln County, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Lincoln County

Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Lincoln County?

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 Lincoln County?

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 Lincoln County?

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 Lincoln County?

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 King's Daughters in Jackson?

The Brookhaven campus is in Brookhaven, in Lincoln County. Jackson has other hospitals.

Which page for a Brookhaven address?

Use the Brookhaven page. Use this county page for a Lincoln County address outside the city.
