About the Company
Aveanna Healthcare
It all started with a simple idea: How can we help people live better lives by providing better home healthcare? That idea became a company called Aveanna, dedicated to bringing new possibilities and new hope to those we serve.
At Aveanna, we believe that the ultimate place for caring is right in the comfort of home. We are a new company that has quickly established itself as a pre-eminent, national leader in healthcare as well as homecare. We believe in clinical excellence, innovation, and compassionate care to every patient and family we are privileged to help. But what sets us apart most is our focus on the relationship between the caregiver and the patient. By surrounding our patients with superior resources, and by giving our caregivers better technology and training, we are able to provide superior healthcare that makes a difference in what’s possible in outcomes and daily living.
Aveanna’s leadership team has worked for more than 40 years building other great home healthcare companies on a national level. Now that experience is building the healthcare company of the future. Today, Aveanna Healthcare cares for patients and families in 33 states through our rapidly growing network of more than 300 branch offices, offering a variety of care and services to more than 40,000 children and adults.
