We have had two horrific experiences with Vitas. First one, the hospice woman never showed up to our house when dad was transferred from hospital. Our dad died without any help. Second parent, hospice said they cannot help (get paid by Medicare). Mother needs to immediately leave hospital and we have to care for dying mother ourselves. (Three doctors over ruled her, thank God.). She said she gets coverage but Vitas will swing by ONLY if she starts to convulse. Yet, like a used car saleswoman, this Vitas worker tried to get us to sign contract. NO WAY. There are other options besides VITAS. So far, we have had terrible hospice experiences with Vitas. Run. Use someone else. Ask questions. They are not your only option.

During a very difficult time the nurses, aides, social worker and chaplain were very helpful. I wished we our doctor had referred us to Vitas earlier. We had supplies, medications and equipment delivered to the home. When we called during the night or on weekends they were able to help.

I wrote an earlier review of of this facility and it was written out of emotions What I didn’t mention is nurse is awesome sweet, understanding, caring and patient. My husband likes her and I trust her... I heard from his hospice doctor today he was very kind and assured me that my husband’s pain will be managed and I believe him Thank you Vitas I don’t give 5 stars on any review as no one is perfect because are all still learning

My sister was referred to Vitas at the end of August by Emory’s Palliative Care department, so we had high hopes. Three months later, we are looking for a new agency. While some of the nurses have been terrific, the medical director of my sister’s team has proved untrustworthy (doesn’t do what he says he will) and uncommunicative (doesn’t return calls or texts). The bottom line is that my sister is in more pain now than when she entered Vitas’ care. I wish we had had the five star experience some other clients describe, but we haven’t.

VITAS did an excellent job taking care of my mother the last week of her life. All of the nurses were professional, compassionate, competent, and patient. The staff seemed equally as concerned with the grieving process of the family as they did with the comfort of the patient. It was a terrible experience, but the staff at this facility made every effort to be as supportive as possible and to make an awful situation the best it could be.

Words just cannot express how deeply we appreciate all you have done for our mother. You all showed true compassion and kindness for her and her illness. Lisa, Brooke, and Holly were incredible and mom loved them. We want to say “Thank You” once again to all of you. May God’s blessings flow in each of your lives.

RUN!!!! As quickly as you can in the opposite direction!! Never ever in my life have I encountered such rude, uncaring people as I have in dealing with the ATL office, The DON is the most arrogant person I have ever dealt. with and the Administrator is a complete idiot. My poor grandmother could not het anyone to come when she was in a pain crisis, she died in pain without anyone from this company.
