Building Careers, Not Jobs
At Amedisys, our second core belief is to build careers, not jobs. Our employees enjoy working for the Company and are passionate about what they do because they feel that their work is more than just a job.
"Growing up, my father always told me that if someone could leave the house in the morning to go to work and not feel like he is working, then he must really love what he does. Touching people's lives everyday is not a job; it's a way of life! I'm so proud to be a part of something so special and real."
Tammie Lamarre, Account Executive, Amedisys Home Health Care
"I am a Licensed Masters prepared Social Worker and do both social work and volunteer work for my hospice agency. I have worked for three other hospice agencies over a span of 12 years, and this is the first agency that truly 'walks the walk' in supporting and respecting their employees. The idea of every employee having an owner's mentality is brought to fruition by the programs that help us improve our own quality of life just as we try to improve the quality of life for our patients."
Anita Kress, Medical Social Worker, Adventa Hospice Services, an Amedisys company
"Prior to joining Amedisys, I was the Resident Care Director of an assisted living home. After seeing the difference Amedisys made in each resident they cared for in my facility, I was overwhelmed. Many of our patients were on the border of moving out because of physical decline. The physical therapist along with the skilled nursing team of Amedisys worked with these precious individuals and helped them regain a measure of strength that kept them in their home. I am honored to be part of a team whose goals center around meeting the needs of our aging community."
Sue Miller, LPN, Account Manager, Amedisys Home Health Care
"When I attended the New Employee Orientation, CEO Bill Borne spoke about his willingness to be fair and show appreciation to all staff members. At that moment, I think he was demonstrating Amedisys' Core Belief # 12 - Practice Lateral Service. While working on many levels at Amedisys, I have consistently experienced these values and let me tell you that it feels good. I'm inspired to do my best!"
Dan Rojcewicz, Bereavement Coordinator, Adventa Hospice Services, an Amedisys company
"Before joining Amedisys, I worked for a global accounting firm that made a lot of promises regarding employee satisfaction. In my first month with Amedisys, I saw more initiative directed towards employee development, both personally and professionally, than I did in the year I was with the firm. I believe that Amedisys' management and staff genuinely care about their employees, patients, doctors, vendors, and anyone else who has a relationship with the company. Amedisys embodies the phrase, 'don't just talk the talk, but walk the walk!'"
