A Message From Katherine Krause

VNA Hospice Care remains the most experienced hospice care provider in Texas and serves patients across 16 counties. Our hospice care team focuses on helping our patients live life to its fullest with dignity, care, and respect. Our expert, compassionate clinical team’s commitment to the highest quality of care is reflected in a recent Four Star rating from Medicare and renewed CHAP accreditation.
VNA has been Community Health Accreditation Partner (CHAP) accredited since 2010. All hospice organizations are required to meet state and federal regulations in order to operate. However, obtaining CHAP accreditation requires meeting higher standards of care and going above and beyond Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) guidelines. VNA was recently audited by CHAP (standard for all CHAP-accredited agencies) and was found to have no deficiencies.
This distinctive CHAP Accreditation demonstrates VNA meets the industry’s highest nationally recognized Hospice standards. The rigorous evaluation by CHAP focuses on structure and function, quality of services and products, human and financial resources and long-term viability. Adherence to CHAP’s Standards leads to better quality care.
We are also proud to announce that our Children’s Haven pediatric hospice program has also received this distinguished and rare accreditation for caring for seriously ill children from birth to 21. VNA remains committed to providing the highest quality of care for our community.
