Today is National Coming Out Day, and our opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to creating a workplace in which every team member can be their true, authentic selves at work.

If the past two years have taught us anything, it's that caring for our mental health can be just as important as caring for our physical health. Click here for more information from the World Health Organization on depression and what you can do: https://hubs.li/H0Z3RBr0.

On this World Hospice and Palliative Care Day, we honor all our passionate clinicians who provide compassionate and industry-leading quality care to those who need us the most. Find out more about our hospice services at https://hubs.li/H0Z3LCz0.

We were beyond honored to be named one of Modern Healthcare's 2021 Best Places to Work! Hear from our people on what this means for us.

Each of us has our own reason for getting vaccinated, from protecting ourselves, loved ones and patients to personal experiences. Each week, we'll share why our people choose to get vaccinated in our #MyWhy series. First up - Dr. Amy Moss, SVP of Hospice Clinical Operations.

Meet Kris Novak - VP of Mergers & Acquisitions and one of Aging Media Network's 2021 Future Leaders! https://hubs.li/H0YW5J50

November is our favorite month, because it's National Home Care and Hospice Month! This is our opportunity to celebrate our mission of helping those who need us the most wherever they call home. Join us in thanking our nationwide family of caregivers for the incredible work they do each and every day for hundreds of thousands of patients and their family members!

This Halloween, whether you're trick-or-treating (socially distant, of course), or having a Zoom Halloween party, stay safe, healthy and scary!

Under normal circumstances, Halloween is one of our favorite times of year at the corporate office in Baton Rouge with the annual Halloweenie celebration. This year, our costume contest went virtual. Who is your favorite of this selection and, in particular, which Carol Baskin wore it best?

Our stellar performance is a direct result of our caregivers' tenacity and dedication to our central mission of helping those who need us the most, no matter the circumstance. Thank you for all you do!

This week is Pastoral Care Week and our opportunity to thank our dedicated corps of chaplains who complete the picture of our care. At Amedisys, we promote a holistic approach to hospice care, treating the whole person including body, mind and spirit.

Our AseraCare team in Indianapolis hosted a mock wedding ceremony for one of our patients followed by an official pinning ceremony to honor the patient's military service. This is why we do what we do. #MakingMomentsMatter

As yet another storm threatens our people and patients, we’re grateful to have a dedicated corporate support team there at every step of the way to response and recovery. THANK YOU to Iris Rancatore, David Johnson and the rest of our incredible group for caring for our people during these times.

Our thoughts are with all those in the path of yet another dangerous storm. Stay safe, and we’ll be here for you on the other side.

Home health and hospice are two options for healthcare at home that provide very different types of care. Comparing home health vs. hospice will help you understand which type of care matches your needs. So, what is the difference between hospice and home health?

Meet Cristina Lopez - a Hospice Liaison in Miami, Florida. We're proud to celebrate the diversity of our people during National Hispanic Heritage Month!

To our Jewish family, friends and partners, Yom Tov. Yom Kippur is Judaism's holiest day, and we hope all those recognizing this day are able to reflect and to have a good and easy fast.
