Ambercare

About

Ambercare is dedicated to delivering exceptional home health, hospice, and personal care services across New Mexico as a proud member of the Addus Family of Companies. Since its inception in Belen, NM in 1994, Ambercare has grown to become the largest home healthcare provider in the state. Joining the Addus Family on May 1, 2018, Ambercare continues to uphold the tradition of excellence that Addus HomeCare has established over more than four decades.

Founded in 1979, Addus HomeCare has evolved from a home cleaning service into one of the nation's leading providers of personal home care and support services. Our mission remains steadfast: to deliver high-quality, cost-effective care that empowers individuals to maintain their independence at home. We focus on serving the elderly, disabled, and chronically ill, particularly those at risk of hospitalization or institutionalization.

Our journey began with providing chore services to Chicago's at-risk elderly population through a city contract. Over time, we expanded by acquiring additional home care contracts across various states and diversifying our service offerings. In 1996, inspired by an employee's suggestion based on an ancient Celtic deity symbolizing health and wellness, we adopted the name Addus HomeCare.

In 2016, we refined our strategy to concentrate on growth within our existing states while enhancing our clinical care services. Today, we proudly serve over 42,000 personal care patients and provide home health and hospice services to more than 3,600 patients through our 210 offices across 22 states.

Our Board of Directors and leadership team have cultivated a culture rooted in values that guide every aspect of our operations. They ensure strategic and financial growth to expand our reach and impact. By placing the right people in key positions, they enable us to best serve our patients and stakeholders. Our executive team collaborates closely with senior leadership, field leaders, and the board to support the vital work of our caregivers.
