Heart Failure Certification
VITAS has become the first nationwide hospice provider to earn the American Heart Association® Palliative/Hospice Heart Failure certification across all 15 states in which it operates. Achieving this certification reinforces our commitment to excellence in caring for patients with advanced cardiac disease.
VITAS was quick to respond to my wife's every need. Their staff is experienced, well-trained, and very eager to help. Every one of the VITAS staff members we dealt with was helpful and easy to work with.

I brought my mother-in-law home, and within two hours, VITAS was in my home checking on her. They had a hospital bed, commode, and a lot of other instruments that I would need to care for my mother-in-law delivered the same evening.

We hope you realize what a difference you are making and how grateful we are for you. Our dad was very appreciative of the care you gave him.
