About Chemed Corporation

Chemed Corporation operates as a diversified services company through its two primary segments: VITAS Healthcare and Roto-Rooter. VITAS provides hospice and palliative care services to patients across the United States via a comprehensive network of physicians, registered nurses, home health aides, social workers, clergy, and volunteers, focusing on end-of-life care. Roto-Rooter delivers essential plumbing, drain cleaning, excavation, water restoration, and related maintenance services to both residential and commercial customers through a combination of company-owned branches, independent contractors, and franchisees. This dual-segment structure enables Chemed Corporation to serve distinct yet essential needs in the healthcare and home services markets, offering resilience through non-correlated business lines. Founded in 1970 and headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, Chemed Corporation maintains a strong presence in these sectors, supporting communities with critical care and repair solutions.
