Acadia Healthcare

If you or a loved one is facing a life-limiting illness, VITAS Healthcare can help. We focus on you, not your disease, to ensure comfort and dignity near the end of life. VITAS provides you and your family with a team of hospice professionals—physician, nurse, hospice aide, social worker, chaplain, volunteer—to meet physical, emotional and spiritual needs. We care for you wherever you call home—a private residence, assisted living community or nursing home. If symptoms become severe, we have Intensive Comfort Care, shifts of 24-hour continuous care until symptoms are under control. For those symptoms that cannot be managed at home, VITAS also provides inpatient hospice beds and units in local hospitals. With VITAS you’re never alone. We’re available 24/7/365, with support available even on holidays and weekends. In the transition from hospital to home, from curative to palliative care, from chronic to end-stage disease, VITAS is with you every step of the way.

At Emerald Coast Hospice, delivering compassionate end-of-life care isn’t just our privilege – it’s our calling. As part of the Gentiva family of industry-leading hospice, palliative, and home health providers, we are dedicated to surrounding patients and their families with physical, emotional, and social support as they face the difficulties of a terminal diagnosis, enabling them to live with dignity and grace.

The Residence in Pensacola is a neighborhood-style, dedicated memory care community specifically designed to enhance quality of life for those with memory loss. If you're looking for more than a traditional assisted living facility for your loved one, The Residence by VITAS Healthcare is your answer. Our day program is also available, offering balance for caregivers who want their loved ones to stay home with them, yet still, work or attend to other responsibilities during the day.
