Homes and communities are where people thrive. We’ve held this belief since our founding in 1967 and have worked to make it reality for the thousands of individuals we serve. We continue that work today and are using innovation, technology, and collaboration across our organization to do more for more people. Sevita is the leading provider of home and community-based specialty health care, with 40,000 employees proudly serving over 50,000 individuals. We believe that people can grow, learn, and be as independent as possible in the homes and communities where they live. We serve adults and children with intellectual and developmental disabilities, individuals with complex care needs, people recovering from brain injury, seniors in need of everyday support, children in foster care, adults and children with autism spectrum disorders, and other individuals who may require care across a lifetime. Our goal is to enable these individuals to be as independent as possible and to live and thrive in their communities. It’s what we’ve done for more than 50 years, and it’s what we continue to do today. For us, it’s a calling. Because when you have a chance to make a difference in someone’s life, you take it. Our team has a passion for helping others grow, learn, and live their best life. We meet people where they are and help them reach their full potential. At Sevita, it’s not just a job. It’s about seeing others for who they are, and understanding and meeting their needs and preferences. An individual’s health and wellness goes beyond simply physical health – it’s behavioral supports and looking at social determinants of health, too. And we are right there, supporting the whole person, because every person has the right to live well.
