CMS publishes a family caregiver survey, known as the CAHPS Hospice Survey, that asks caregivers about their experience. For this hospice, CMS has not published a CAHPS star rating, a percentage of caregivers who would definitely recommend the hospice, or a percentage rating the hospice 9-10 out of 10. This is often the case when a hospice has too few surveyed patients for CMS to report results reliably, and it should not be read as a sign of poor quality.

For St Catherine'S Healthcare Llc, CMS lists this as not reported, so no comparison to the Texas state average composite score of 94.72 can be made at this time. CMS's care index score, a separate quality indicator, is listed as 5, and the percentage of visits in the last days of life is listed as 0.0%.
