Service is in our DNA

From humble beginnings…

A lot has changed in the more than 40 years since Addus began back in 1979, but our core objective remains the same: providing great care for the elderly, disabled and chronically ill, especially those who are at risk of hospitalization or institutionalization. We started out as a home cleaning service and then began providing chore services to Chicago’s at-risk elderly population through a contract with the city.

…To nationwide care.

Our growth continued through the acquisition of additional home care contracts in other states, the opening of new branch offices, and the diversification into new services lines.

Through a national name change nomination contest, an employee in California who studied ancient deities as a hobby, suggested the name Addus based on the ancient Celtic deity who brought health and wellness to his people. In 1996, we changed our name to Addus HomeCare.

In 2016, Addus refined its strategy to focus on growth in the states in which we have a current presence while adding clinical care services to our offerings. We now provide personal care to over 42,000 patients while providing home health and hospice services to over 3,600 patients. We now have 210 offices in 22 states.
