Find the Right Hospice Care in Rankin County
About 34 hospices currently serve Rankin County, including 1 nonprofit. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Rankin County is wider than any one of its cities. Merit Health River Oaks is in Flowood. Brandon, Pearl, and Flowood do not share one campus. The large Jackson hospitals are across the river in Hinds County. Lakeland Drive, I-20, and U.S. 80 are different night drives, and a Flowood yes is not a Brandon yes. Use the Brandon page when the home is inside that city. Use this county page when the address is another community in Rankin 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.
We are a free, independent resource created by healthcare professionals to help Mississippi 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 Rankin County
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Rankin 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 Rankin 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 Rankin 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 Rankin 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 Rankin County the same as Flowood?
No. Flowood is one city. Brandon is the county seat, and Pearl is another city. The county is all of them.
Which hospital is in Rankin County?
Merit Health River Oaks is in Flowood. The University of Mississippi Medical Center, St. Dominic, and Mississippi Baptist are in Jackson, in Hinds County.

Brandon is the county seat. Flowood and Pearl have their own pages and their own night roads. A house in Richland, Florence, or on a county road is this page.
