If you or a loved one is facing a life-limiting illness, VITAS Healthcare can help. We focus on you, not your disease, to ensure comfort and dignity near the end of life. VITAS provides you and your family with a team of hospice professionals—physician, nurse, hospice aide, social worker, chaplain, volunteer—to meet physical, emotional and spiritual needs. We care for you wherever you call home—a private residence, assisted living community or nursing home. If symptoms become severe, we have Intensive Comfort Care, shifts of 24-hour continuous care until symptoms are under control. For those symptoms that cannot be managed at home, VITAS also provides inpatient hospice beds and units in local hospitals. With VITAS you’re never alone. We’re available 24/7/365, with support available even on holidays and weekends. In the transition from hospital to home, from curative to palliative care, from chronic to end-stage disease, VITAS is with you every step of the way.

They really deserve no stars! Later we learned they are known in the industry and local area as the hospice that will drop you from continuous care as soon as possible and blame Medicare regulations. We know that's not the case because other hospices offered to take over care and, given our mother's condition, assured us they would stay until she passed. Vitas dropped our mother only 5 days after she had a major stroke and only three days before her death. During this time she was unconscious and having seizures, fever, high BP, and pain. They expected the family to monitor and administer medications and they would only drop by twice a week. The last instructions they gave before leaving us was "Call us when she dies".
