Brevard County Hospice & Palliative Care
VITAS hospice team members visit patients wherever they call home (private home, nursing home, assisted living community, long-term care facility, etc.) throughout Central Florida and the Space Coast.
We have offices in Barefoot Bay, Melbourne, and Titusville, as well as an inpatient unit in Rockledge. We provide care wherever you need it. The map below indicates our general service area.
The goal at VITAS is individual care determined by the patient’s wishes and preferences. Integrated services can be brought to the bedside by a music therapist or a Paw Pals® visit, as needed. We also assist patients through the services of our massage therapist respiratory therapist and a child life specialist. With recognition from the We Honor Veterans program, Central Florida military veterans get the support they deserve near the end of life.
