Connecticut
VITAS cares for hospice patients throughout Connecticut every day. We have three offices in Glastonbury, Waterbury and Norwalk.
Hospice patients don’t come to us; we go to our patients. Our teams bring personalized care to every patient, every day. We have staff trained to understand the needs of the many military veterans who call Connecticut home. In fact, we have an annual service aboard the Nautilus Submarine Museum every Memorial Day.

Meet the VITAS Hospice Team
Physician
The physician closely monitors the progression of the patient’s illness, prescribes appropriate medications and coordinates care with other members of the team.
Hospice Nurse
The hospice nurse is skilled in assessing and managing pain and other symptoms. A nurse may also help with personal care.
Hospice Aide
Hospice aides provide personal care to the patient. They are also the “eyes and ears” for the rest of the hospice team.
Social Worker
The social worker acts as a friendly and skilled listener and provides emotional support.
Volunteer
The hospice volunteer can bring music or a Paw Pals animal companion, and spends quality time with the patient and family.
Chaplain
The chaplain ministers to the spiritual needs of patients and families of all faiths, and can work with their clergy.
