As the nation's leading provider of hospice care, VITAS
has been serving patients since 1978. We provide care for
adults with a wide range of life-limiting illnesses, includ -

liver and kidney disease and more. VITAS is dedicated
to expanding the choices available to the ter minally ill and
their families, and to providing a kind of care that cannot
be duplicated by other providers–hospi tals, home care ser -
vices or nursing homes. Our efforts are centered on defining
and meeting the specific needs of the terminally ill and
their families–something we call Innovative Hospice Care
