Mission Statement

Our mission is to revolutionize the way homecare is delivered, one patient at a time. We have purposefully built a platform around our strong organizational culture, which is grounded in our Mission, Core Values, and Operating Principles. We seek to hire individuals who embody our Core Values, and every decision we make, large or small, is guided by our Operating Principles, which we refer to as "The Five Cs." Compliance is the element of our culture that underscores everything we do. The organizational culture we have created supports our ability to recruit, motivate, and empower our people at all levels so that we can deliver better patient care and superior performance. We owe that to the patients and families who trust their care and their lives to us. Simply put, Aveanna is a different kind of home healthcare company because our culture will always remain at the critical heart of our ambitious goals.
