Baptist Reynolds Hospice House

When a life-limiting illness is no longer manageable at home, the Baptist Reynolds Hospice House and the adjacent Kemmons Wilson Family Center for Good Grief  can provide much-needed comfort and support to patients and their loved ones. 

The Hospice House is located in a quiet, tree-lined corner of the Baptist Memorial Hospital-Collierville campus. The residence features a home-like environment with 24 private rooms. Physicians, nurses, certified nursing assistants, social workers, grief counselors, chaplains, and volunteers work as a team for the patient and their loved ones.

The Center for Good Grief provides grief counseling, grief support groups and grief camp programs for children, teens and adults—all free of charge.

Priceless Wishes

For many patients with life-limiting illnesses, their wishes are quite simple: attend a family reunion; enjoy a loved one's birthday; ride a horse; go fishing; learn to play an instrument. These memories and time with loved ones can be hard for family members to plan, but the time they spend together truly is priceless. See how we make these wishes come true.
