A lot of people confuse our business office and our Lucy Smith King Care Center so we wanted to jump on and clarify a bit of information. Both are owned and operated by St. Anthony’s Hospice. While the Lucy Smith King Care Center (hereinafter referred to as “LSKCC”) is located inside Deaconess Henderson Hospital, we are not affiliated with the hospital. Rather, St. Anthony’s leases the space for LSKCC, which is our hospice hospital.
Hospice patients with symptoms that cannot be managed in the home setting are sent to LSKCC for 24/7 nursing care. The patient and/or family can choose to pay out of pocket to have their loved one stay up at LSKCC under residential care.
If you are visiting a patient and you know he/she is at LSKCC or “the care center” as it is often referred, the address is the same as Deaconess Henderson Hospital- 1305 N. Elm St., Henderson, KY. LSKCC has it’s own entrance, pictured here, and a sign inside Deaconess Henderson Hospital that says “St. Anthony’s Hospice”. For more information on the Lucy Smith King Care Center, please visit our webpage dedicated to our inpatient unit here.
Our business office is located at 2410 S. Green St., Henderson, KY, and our day-to-day operations are carried out here.
If you have any questions about St. Anthony’s Hospice, the Lucy Smith King Care Center, or would like to refer a patient into our care, please call (270) 826-2326 or make an online referral.
