As Memorial Day approaches, we pause to remember and honor the lives of those who died in service to our country. Their sacrifice is the foundation of the freedoms we hold dear. Though Memorial Day honors those who gave their lives, it is also a time when many living veterans quietly carry the weight of that loss. As we reflect, we're reminded of the responsibility we have to those who return from service—many with unseen wounds, bearing the quiet grief of fallen comrades. Carlos Rodriguez, one of our Community Partner Specialists and a proud veteran, is living that commitment every day. His recent interview on Great Day Live Tampa Bay spotlights his powerful work connecting veterans with care, support, and purpose.Carlos represents the best of who we are at Empath Health: service-minded, community-rooted, and dedicated to honoring lives through action. We’re proud to have him on our team—and even prouder of the difference he’s making. ... See MoreSee Less

At Empath Health, we’re proud of our President and CEO, Jonathan Fleece, for championing increased federal investment in home-based care—a model that brings dignity, comfort, and cost-effective support directly to those we serve. Jonathan’s message to lawmakers is clear: to protect access and ensure quality, we must address regulatory challenges, prevent fraud, and embrace value-based and pay-for-performance models. Home-based care isn’t a luxury—it’s a vital part of a compassionate, sustainable healthcare future. Thank you to Resource 1 Homecare Staffing for sharing our story and helping to elevate this important conversation. #EmpathHealth #FullLifeCare #HomeBasedCare ... See MoreSee Less
