Your Community.
Your Hospital. Your Neighbors Caring for You.

For more than a century, Helena Hospital has been the healthcare home of the Arkansas Delta — locally owned, locally operated, and built around the people who call this place home.

About Helena Hospital

Serving the Delta Since 1909

Since 1909, Helena Hospital has stood as a cornerstone of healthcare in Phillips County and the surrounding Arkansas Delta. We are community-owned, which means every decision we make is guided by the needs of the people we serve — not by distant corporate interests.

When you walk through our doors, you are greeted by the same people you see at church, at the grocery store, and at Friday night football games. That is the Helena Hospital difference.

Helena Hospital facility

The mission of Helena Hospital is to improve the health status of individuals in the community by providing convenient access to health care, treatment, and services close to home.

REH Designated Since December 2023

What Is a Rural Emergency Hospital?

In December 2023, Helena Hospital became a Rural Emergency Hospital (REH) — an innovative federal designation created by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to help small communities keep essential healthcare services close to home.

What this means for you: 24/7 emergency care, outpatient testing, diagnostic imaging, laboratory services, and short-term observation — everything you rely on from us — delivered in a model built for communities our size.

Community Owned

Community Owned. Locally Operated.

Unlike hospitals owned by large healthcare systems, Helena Hospital answers to the community it serves. Our Board of Directors is made up of local residents. Our staff members are your friends, your neighbors, and your family.

When you choose Helena Hospital, you are choosing care from people who know you by name — not by a number.
