About Access Home Health

Founded by clinicians who wanted home health done right

Access Home Health was started in Jacksonville in 2019 by a registered nurse and a physical therapist who saw how much better patients do when the people planning their care are the same people delivering it.

Values

What we promise every patient

Four commitments that shape every plan of care, every visit, and every phone call.

  • ✓Consistency. The same clinicians for the length of your care whenever possible.
  • ✓Honesty. Straight answers, even the hard ones. Plain language, no medical jargon, and our word is one you can count on.
  • ✓Communication. Your physician hears from us at start of care, every recertification, and discharge.
  • ✓Dignity. Care that fits your home, your routines, and your goals, not a checklist.
