Richard Ashworth

President and CEO

As President and CEO of Amedisys, I’m inspired and motivated by our mission of honoring those we serve with compassionate home health, hospice and high-acuity care services. By using the highest quality clinical practices and allowing our patients to maintain a sense of independence, quality of life and dignity, Amedisys is poised to lead the future of healthcare in the home. I will work every day with our nationwide team of caregivers to become the best choice of care wherever our patients call home.My career in healthcare has been guided by three fundamental beliefs. I believe we should treat every patient and customer as an individual. I believe healthcare isn’t sick care, and I believe we are not solving the most important challenges in healthcare today unless we are addressing healthcare disparities.While most of my career has been spent in pharmacy and retail, my most recent experience at Tivity Health allowed me to focus on the front-end of healthcare, helping people with their daily behaviors and advocating for preventative care and basic wellness. I cherished my time there and am thankful for the opportunity.
