01 —Serving Lindale
Built for Lindale families.
Lindale — known for its historic Cannery District, the Garden Valley countryside, and the lakes around Hideaway just to the west — is one of the fastest-growing communities in northern Smith County. Its families tend to be rooted and multi-generational, the kind who care for their own at home for as long as they can. Azalea Hospice brings the full team to Lindale homes: a nurse who answers the phone day or night, an aide, a chaplain, a social worker, and the medications and equipment a family needs — without the drive into Tyler.
Lindale is part of our Smith County service area. For the full Tyler-area hub, see Hospice Care in Tyler, TX →

03 —Common Questions
What Lindale families ask first.
Do you provide hospice care at home in Lindale?
Yes — most Lindale families choose hospice at home, whether that's a house in town, a place out toward Garden Valley or Hideaway, or a room in a local care facility. The Azalea team comes to you, so there's no drive into Tyler for routine visits.
How quickly can a nurse reach Lindale?
Azalea offers same-day evaluations across northern Smith County and 24/7 on-call nursing. From the time of a referral, most patients are admitted within 24 to 48 hours, and our clinical line is answered by a real nurse — not an answering service — every hour of the day.
Which hospitals do you coordinate Lindale discharges with?
We coordinate discharges with the Tyler hospital systems most Lindale families use — UT Health Tyler, CHRISTUS Trinity Mother Frances, and UT Health North Campus Tyler — handling the paperwork and the transition home.
How much does hospice cost?
For Medicare and Medicaid patients, hospice is 100% covered — nursing, medications related to the terminal illness, equipment, aide visits, chaplaincy, social work, and 13 months of bereavement support. There is typically no cost to the family. Most private plans mirror the Medicare benefit; we verify your specific coverage before anything starts.
