When her patient wouldn’t leave her dog to get urgent medical help, Jeannie Lucht, RN stepped in, offering to take Favio home for the night and arrange care for the next day. Her kindness and quick thinking made all the difference. The patient agreed to go to the hospital and thankfully was able to return home just 24 hours later!

Jeannie went above and beyond, representing the very best of Amedisys. She didn’t just help a patient in crisis — she reassured her, advocated for her and quite literally took care of the ones she loves. It’s this kind of compassionate, whole-person care that makes our work meaningful, and nurses like Jeannie true MVPs. Thank you, Jeannie, for leading with heart for our patients and all that matters to them!

Three members of our Garner, NC hospice care center recently came together to support a local family as their 22-year-old son entered his final moments of life. The team responded quickly, admitted the patient, remained with the family and provided comfort and prayer as he passed — all in one meaningful visit.

We are proud to have such compassionate caregivers on our team. Thank you, Dianna, Mandy and Amanda for your urgency, empathy and dedication to putting our patients and their families first in the moments that matter.

Our team has been busy celebrating our AMAZING CNA's so this post is a bit late!

When you think of a CNA, what is the first thing you think of? You could think of ones working in nursing homes or you could think that a CNA is one that helps individuals in their home. No matter what you think of, these CNA's provide exceptional, loving care for individuals who are at a vulnerable stage in life, and they do it all with a smile. It goes back to the old saying, "They may not remember who you are, what you say, or even what you looked like, but they will remember how you made them feel."

Our CNA's at Amedisys are the angels who provide the comfort and the care to our patients in need, and most of all, they provide this service with a touch of love. Each and every one of them are a true blessing our team!

Happy CNA week to our compassionate team!💚💚
