Baptist Hospice

About

Baptist Memorial Health Care stands as a leading health care system, renowned for its compassionate and high-quality care. Since our inception in 1912 with a 150-bed hospital, we have expanded to meet the growing needs of our communities, once becoming the largest privately owned hospital in the nation.

Guided by the three-fold ministry of Christ—Healing, Preaching, and Teaching—our mission is to deliver exceptional health care. Our vision is to establish an expert care system in the Mid-South where love thrives, enabling the impossible through divine intervention.

Our core values include compassionate care and service, teamwork and trust, innovation and excellence, and respect for individual diversity. We leverage innovative technology to provide safe, integrated, patient-focused, high-quality, and cost-effective medical care across the Mid-South. Our commitment extends beyond patient recovery; we aim to uplift entire communities.

At Baptist Memorial Health Care, quality patient care transcends numbers. We prioritize nationally recognized quality indicators as benchmarks of excellence and uphold transparency as vital to our success.

We are deeply committed to corporate citizenship, collaborating with local organizations to foster stronger, healthier communities. Annually, we contribute to hundreds of nonprofit organizations through programs, seminars, health fairs, board participation, events, and employee engagement.

Our Baptist Healthy Communities initiative partners with local nonprofits to ensure effective and affordable health care for underserved populations. Through various programs and community events across Arkansas, Mississippi, and Tennessee, we address key health needs identified in our Community Health Needs Assessment for our 24 hospitals.
