Jana Upchurch
Physical Therapist Assistant
Amedisys Demopolis Care Team
With 18 years of experience as a Physical Therapist Assistant, I’ve had the privilege of working in various settings- but home health care holds a special place in my heart. For the past 9 years, I’ve been part of the Amedisys Home Health Demopolis care team. I’ve been dedicated to helping patients regain their independence in the comfort of their homes.
I love home health because it allows me to connect with patients one-on-one, giving me the opportunity to truly focus on their goals. It’s incredibly rewarding to do the activities they love-without limitations. Seeing their progress and knowing I played a part in that journey is what keeps me passionate about my work every day.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my boys-whether it’s hunting, taxidermy, or fitness activities. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, Josh, and we are blessed with three wonderful boys: Zane, Zeke, and Zeb. My family keeps me grounded, and they are my greatest supporters in everything I do.
