VITAS has shaped the American hospice movement since 1978, setting the standard for end-of-life care. Today, VITAS advocates for earlier hospice enrollment driven by recent research that highlights its value:

increased patient/family satisfaction and quality of life
fewer hospitalizations
reduced strain on caregivers and the medical community

Although earlier hospice enrollment maximizes outcomes, even short lengths of stay provide meaningful benefits.

Caregiver Testimonials

“The VITAS team are angels on earth.”
- Renee B., Los Angeles and Ventura counties, CA

“When our mom fell in mid-November, she was in a lot of pain and could not walk. VITAS was called in, and their nurses were wonderful! Our mom received the medication and medical supplies she needed quickly because they care very much for their clients' comfort and quality of life. They came every day to make sure she was comfortable and treated her like a queen. VITAS offers continuous care services, and they helped when our family really needed them during our mom's final days...”
- Jay and Nancy B., Sacramento, CA
