Mission Statement To provide exceptional quality healthcare for our patients in the comfort and privacy of their own home. We help our patients live safely and comfortably in the place they know best, by doing what we do best. To manage our employees in an ethical, respectful and professional manner.

To this end, the Agency is committed to providing a high performance of health care essential to the improvement of a client’s physical and psychosocial condition. At the same time, we recognize and respect the broad base of client rights, in all care and service delivery, and the need to effectively conduct all business and direct care activities related to this care in an ethical manner. We help our patients live safely and comfortably in the place they know best, by doing what we do best. Our goal is to meet the patient’s medical needs in the nurturing environment of their home, minimize the impact of the patient’s condition on the family while respecting the role of the family in the care of the patient. AMHA does not discriminate against age, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, mental or physical handicap/s, marital status, or military or political affiliation in the hiring of employees or the treatment of clients. Furthermore, the AMHA respects the autonomy and privacy of the client and family to make decisions and choices affecting their present and future health status. AMHA continually seeks new ways and means of being responsive to the ever changing health needs of the community. An adjunct to this concept is the essential role of evaluation of the AMHA’s services and applied research in improving those services.
