Home health care can be a lifeline for people recovering from illness or injury or managing chronic conditions. It helps patients stay safe and independent at home, with support from skilled professionals. Many don’t realize it’s fully covered by Medicare for those who qualify.

Heart failure is one of the leading causes of hospitalization for older adults and it rarely presents alone — most people with heart failure have at least one other significant cardiovascular condition. Without the right support, living independently becomes a challenge and many end up back in the hospital.

Our evidence-based Heart Failure Empowerment Program helps patients manage symptoms at home with a personalized care plan, interdisciplinary support and close coordination with physicians. Learn more: https://hubs.li/Q03QDJmH0

At Amedisys, we pride ourselves on industry-leading quality of care. This National Healthcare Quality Week, we’re celebrating the measurable impact of our commitment to excellence in both hospice and home health.

In hospice, Amedisys outperforms national CMS averages on all 7 HIS quality measures, and our Hospice Care Index score of 9.7 exceeds the national average of 8.8. And our Code Green protocol ensures patients receive compassionate, timely care, far surpassing national benchmarks for end-of-life visits.

In home health, Amedisys averages 4.2 stars out of 5 for quality of patient care, well above the national average of 3.24 stars. This rating reflects how often our patients improve in key areas like walking, breathing and medication management, and how consistently we deliver timely, effective care.

We’re proud of our clinicians and care teams who make these outcomes possible every day, in every home. Learn more about our quality commitment at: https://hubs.li/Q03PqhnW0

💚Show Your Heart for Hospice💚
When a patient enters hospice care, they need more than medical support—they need someone with the heart to hold their hand, listen to their stories, and provide companionship. You can be that heart.

There are several opportunities to share your talents or resources, such as:
•Administrative : Support hospice office operations, "tuck in" phone calls, pen pal.
•Direct Patient Support : Visit patients one-on-one - companionship (non-clinical)
•Professional : Share a special skillset or credential you have with patients and families. (Hair Stylist, Pet Therapy, Reiki)

By volunteering, you can make a significant impact in the lives of patients and their families while also enriching your own life through meaningful connections and experiences. ✨
