A Shift to Comprehensive Care in the Home
Our mission is to help lead the patient-centered revolution by providing state-of-the-art, innovative health care at home. This means rethinking how America views aging and health issues related to growing older. It requires a monumental shift, from managing one disease at a time by different providers in a vacuum, to managing a patient’s disease process – through communication, technology, care transition and education – from the very beginning of one disease to subsequent age-related illnesses through the end of life.
Amedisys is well-positioned to provide this comprehensive, patient-centered care and has a nationwide care network and the technological capability to link patients, doctors, pharmacists and caregivers – improving patient outcomes, reducing costs and keeping our loved ones where they want to be – at home, enjoying life.
State-of-the-Art Care
Amedisys believes in the power of technology to enable our clinicians to provide better care for our patients. To truly establish a continuum of care that connects each member of a patient’s care team, technology is required to foster communication, manage care plans and efficiently document patient progress. That’s why we’ve invested in programs and technologies that enable our patients to have a true continuum of care experience.
Amedisys is a recognized innovator, one of the first in the industry to equip its clinicians with point-of-care laptop technology and referring physicians with an internet portal that enables seamless, real-time coordination of patient care.
Our advanced chronic care management programs and leading-edge technology enable us to deliver quality care in accordance with the latest evidence-based practices.
Amedisys also established the industry’s first-ever nationwide Care Transitions program, designed to reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions through patient and caregiver health coaching and care coordination.
