Amedisys Emergency Information

The well-being of our patients and employees is of the utmost importance at Amedisys. These pages serve to communicate with patients, employees and their families in the event of a disaster affecting our communities.

In areas that are dealing with power outages, flooding and damage from tropical weather, our nurses, therapists and other caregivers are coordinating with our patients to ensure their safety and that their medical needs are taken care of. 

For Patients

When evacuating ahead of a storm, please let us know your plans, either by letting your nurse or therapist know, or by calling your care center.
