CMS's Care Compare data does not include published CAHPS family caregiver survey results — a star rating, percentage who would definitely recommend the hospice, or percentage rating it 9-10 — for Spero Hospice Services. This is often the case for hospices with small patient counts, and it should not be read as a sign of poor quality; it simply means CMS has not published enough survey data to report those figures.
