Home healthcare company opens office in Asheboro

ASHEBORO — Amedisys, a national home health, hospice and personal care provider, has opened its Asheboro location at 610 N. Fayetteville Street.

The company announced in May that it had acquired regulatory assets that would allow it operate home health care operations in Randolph and Montgomery counties. “We’re honored to be able to offer our compassionate, clinically distinct care to more patients in more places,” said Home Health President Teonie Aurelio at the time the move was announced. “Expanding our footprint into this key market further establishes Amedisys as America’s solution for aging in place.”

Amedisys is the second largest provider of home health care in the United States with 320 locations across 33 states and the District of Columbia. Amedisys currently has nine locations in North Carolina. The Asheboro location will allow the company to provide home health and hospice service to Randolph, Montgomery and Moore counties, according to a statement released at the grand opening.

Modern Healthcare magazine named Amedisys one of the nation’s leading home health, hospice and personal care companies in 2021 by including the company on its “Best Places to Work in Healthcare” list. The magazine’s annual recognition program honors 150 companies and organizations that “empower employees to provide patients and customers with the best possible care, products and services.”
