Overall Review of Amedisys Home Health Care

common 21 reviews mention this

Staff care feels highly attentive

Residents and families frequently describe the staff as friendly, professional, and supportive.

Across many reviews, residents and families describe staff who are friendly and professional, with nurses and coordinators who help them feel comfortable during infusions and follow-up care. Several mentions highlight nurses who go above expectations in handling urgent moments and coordinating around appointments. A few reviews include complaints, but even then some reviewers note the nursing staff is still okay or great, while the bigger issues lie elsewhere.

caveat 9 reviews mention this

Scheduling and communication can stall

Scheduling and getting answers by phone are recurring pain points in the reviews.

Multiple reviewers say it can be hard to reach the team or get scheduled, with unanswered calls, delays, and appointments canceled or changed with little notice. A few describe long gaps before updates, including cases where they said they were waiting weeks for equipment replacement or timing changes. While some people praise the process as easy, the overall recurring theme is that communication and scheduling reliability are inconsistent.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Billing and insurance handling draws fire

Some families report problems with insurance billing and follow-through.

A couple of reviews focus on billing disputes, including claims that insurance was treated as invalid despite evidence of requests for more information. Another reviewer alleges that the company misrepresented how insurance would be billed and describes difficulties getting consistent help when sorting it out. These comments stand apart from the more common praise for day-to-day care, and they center on administrative issues rather than clinical interactions.

common 10 reviews mention this

Care delivery feels prompt and reliable

Several reviews mention timely delivery, follow-ups, or getting help quickly.

Many reviewers describe getting medication, supplies, or items delivered promptly after discharge, along with nurses who call ahead before arriving. Others mention follow-ups from pharmacy and coordinators that help keep treatments on track. This theme is strongest among the more positive reviews, where families say the process helps reduce stress after leaving the hospital.

caveat 10 reviews mention this

Infusion and pump support is mixed

Reviews describe both strong support with infusions and serious concerns with equipment and safety.

On one side, several reviewers report positive infusion or PICC-line experiences, including staff training on pumps and medication supplies, plus help during emergencies. On the other side, some reviews raise serious concerns involving feeding pump problems, dressing-change guidance, and situations where reviewers felt care was unsafe or not handled promptly. Taken together, residents frequently mention infusion-related support, but the experiences vary widely depending on the specific incident and what support was available at the time.
