How is VistaCare different from other hospices?
VistaCare is the one of the largest hospice organizations in the United States, and the third largest in number of patients. Our Comprehensive Care philosophy is central to the way we practice hospice care. Many hospices require patients to have a caregiver at home, or to agree to give up expensive palliative treatments. VistaCare believes there should be no barrier to high quality end-of-life care, admitting any eligible patient who requests hospice care. VistaCare is committed to the exceptional delivery of clinically sophisticated care. Company-wide standards exceeding industry norms have been implemented in all VistaCare programs, along with programs of professional development for staff and for education of family caregivers. VistaCare is committed to raising the benchmarks of hospice care nationwide.
