Amedisys Hospice
Amedisys Hospice
Amedisys Hospice is a Medicare-certified hospice provider serving Largo, Maryland and surrounding areas. A Medicare-certified hospice provides comfort care and support services to patients with terminal illnesses and their families. Hospice care focuses on quality of life rather than curative treatment.
Hospice care is available to patients whose physician certifies they have a terminal illness with a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course. Patients may receive hospice care at home, in a hospice facility, nursing home, or hospital.
Medicare-certified hospices must provide all four levels of hospice care: routine home care, continuous home care for periods of crisis, general inpatient care for symptom management, and inpatient respite care to give caregivers a break. Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers.
Medicare covers hospice services with no cost to patients for most services, including medications for symptom control, medical equipment, and 24-hour access to care. For more information about hospice benefits, visit Medicare.gov. Compare hospice providers at Medicare Care Compare.
Quality data and provider information are updated periodically by CMS. We recommend verifying current information at Medicare Care Compare.

I am the friend of a close family friend and I am supporting them by writing this review. While speaking my very dear friend, she told me that she wishes they had done more research on Amedisys Hospice Largo. She said she would never have chosen them. This was heartbreaking to me because I could feel and hear her pain. Ultimately seniors deserve the best care and families knowing they are being cared for with excellence is at the core of that. This was not happening for my friend’s family. Being taken care of in our old age is a road we all hope to travel.
I have seen first hand how Darlene interacts with families with a compassionate heart and supports the families as they make a difficult decision for their loved ones. Her in lighting smile and informative words makes a family trust they have made the right decision in having Amedisys provide the care for their loved one. Darlene is an exceptional person and a great asset to the company. I would recommend her to any families who need support.
As a PG County-focused home care agency, we work closely with the Amedisys team. They too are PG County focused, extremely professional and incredibly empathetic, making those difficult times much easier for the client and their family. We highly recommend Darlene and Amedisys to anyone in need of hospice care or consultation!
Avis is a gem! She is extremely responsive, attentive, and gets the jobs done. Amedisys is lucky to have her and she is the reason that they are the preferred Hospice Agency at our Community. Keep up the great work. Our residents are pleased with your service and communication.
This agency really needs to be reported for Medicare fraud. My mom was with Amedysis largo for three week and the only supplies she received was a bed and table which she never used because we were denied a speciality mattress due to her not being "immobile enough". Don't even get me started on the clinical manager Jessica. She who talked down on me for wanting wound care and PT for range of motion by saying my mother was going to die and the only thing they would provide was medication. Medication she never even received. My mom was talking pills from her oncologist for pain until we thankfully switched to Montgomery and PG Hospice. They ordered both meds and supplies within day one. I wish we would have went with them from the start. AVOID THIS AGENCY AT ALL COST.
