Hospice care in Mesquite, Nevada
Mesquite is a short run down I-15 from our St. George base — closer to us than several of the Utah towns we serve. For families here, that is the whole point: local care that arrives quickly, rather than an agency two hours away in the Las Vegas valley.

Serving Mesquite families at home
Mesquite has one of the highest concentrations of retirees anywhere in the region, and a lot of them moved here from somewhere else. That combination produces a particular situation we see constantly: a couple in their eighties managing alone, with adult children in California, Washington, or the Midwest, and no local family to lean on when things change at two in the morning.
So we plan for it. Comfort medications stocked in the home before they are needed rather than after. Equipment delivered and set up, not dropped in a box. A nurse reachable at any hour who knows the address and the history. And scheduled calls with out-of-state family so nobody is relaying a nurse's update secondhand to four siblings.
We also serve the surrounding communities — Bunkerville, Scenic, and the homes out along the Virgin River — and we coordinate with the assisted living and skilled nursing communities in town. If someone is being discharged from a hospital in St. George or Las Vegas, call us before the paperwork is done and we will meet the discharge.
We come to wherever home is in Mesquite: a private house, a family member's spare room, an assisted living apartment, memory care, or a skilled nursing facility. The goal is always to avoid one more move.
Also serving nearby: Bunkerville, Scenic, and the Virgin River corridor toward the Arizona line. Not sure whether your address is inside our service area? Call and ask — we will give you a straight answer on the phone.
What Mesquite families get
- A registered nurse (RN) on call 24 hours a day — reaching our own team, not a third-party answering service, and able to come out at night.
- Certified nursing assistant (CNA) visits for bathing, grooming, and personal care, from CNAs we train in-house.
- Aggressive pain and symptom management, adjusted as often as it takes and overseen by our medical director, Dr. Karen Radley.
- Medications, equipment, and supplies related to the hospice diagnosis — delivered to your door and set up.
- Social work, chaplaincy, massage therapy, and volunteers as part of the same benefit, at no additional cost.
- Bereavement support for 13 months after a death, for the whole family — including the out-of-state children.
What it costs in Mesquite
For most families, nothing out of pocket. Hospice is a federal Medicare benefit under Part A, so it works the same in Nevada as it does in Utah. Nevada Medicaid and most private insurance plans cover hospice on similar terms. We verify your coverage and give you the numbers in writing before anything is signed.

Not sure it’s time yet?
That is the most common place families in Mesquite start, and it is the right question to ask early rather than late. We wrote a plain-English guide to the signs, the first 48 hours, and how hospice differs from palliative care. Read: how do I know when it’s time? →
Why families here choose us
Ten out of ten, and no phone tree
Every hospice bills Medicare the same daily rate. What differs is how often somebody actually comes to the house — which is exactly what Medicare’s Hospice Care Index measures.
Closer than Las Vegas
We are based in St. George, a short drive up I-15 — not two hours away down in the valley. Response time is the whole difference at 2am.
Nights and weekends
After-hours calls reach our own nurse — and a nurse will come out. Fewer emergency room trips at 2am.
