★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Theresa Fussell · Feb 2026

If I could give a negative review on this company. both parents were on hospice. Dad passed a year and a half ago Mom still on it was still on it until she went into the hospital for a fall. Social Worker came to my house with a piece of paper had me sign. It didn’t explain anything. She was done it says she was going to rehab. She is home with me. Never went to rehab never told them she went to rehab no explanation nothing and then I’m gonna tell me if I wanna come back to give them a call, never will never will. The service was horrible. Had the video show pictures to the nurse showing what my mother was doing on a daily it was laughed at nothing was done but up medication‘s nothing was done. It was not safe for her to be in my home. Nobody cared this place. Sucks wouldn’t recommend.

I was placed in this horrible company expected to die 6 yrs ago! Was jacked up on large doses of morphine until my husband had enough of their bs.

I do not recommend anyone use this company and frankly, surprised they’re still in business…

We were to have a selected team waiting for my Dad upon discharge. One nurse called and asked that I phone her when my dad arrived. I did, she came, and she left but not before telling me a doctor and another nurse would be in to discuss my dads medications. The n

My family and I cannot thank VITAS Hospice enough for what they did for our family. My mother has always lived at home until she broke her hip at 90 years young. She was in a rehabilitation facility and her health was declining quickly. We wanted to get my mom home so she could spend her remaining days at home. VITAS Hospice helped us get our mom home and provided the care we needed so my mom could be home surrounded by loved ones. The nurses that visited my mom were kind and compassionate. They also helped my brother and I with knowing how to keep my mom comfortable. Chaplain, Roland came to visit my mom and he was so engaging asking my mom all about her life journey. After my mom passed away, the Social Worker came to the house and assisted us with all the arrangements including
