Join the patient-centered revolution

Why Amedisys

Amedisys was founded by a nurse, and our focus has always been on our patients. It’s that commitment to quality and focus on patient care that make us successful, but it’s your passion and dedication that will keep us there. A patient-centered revolution in health care is within our reach. But it all starts with you.

When our patients write us letters they don’t write about company reputation or market share. They write about employees. They talk about compassion and kindness and patience. They mention their nurses, therapists, aides and the people they speak to on the phone. To our patients, you ARE Amedisys.

We understand that Amedisys is only as good as its employees, so we invest in the best employees with competitive compensation and benefits. Our health, retirement and insurance benefits are designed to give you and your family comfort and security, and our professional development and continuing education offerings help you expand your skills and grow your career.

The health care industry is changing; at Amedisys we’re working to lead the country towards a new model of care that not only saves money, but provides convenience, compassion and customized service for each and every patient. We believe we can do that by focusing on quality care, improving technology and efficiency, and never forgetting why we do what we do.

The Amedisys culture is summed up in our Core Beliefs, which outline the values and practices that make our company and our people unique.
