Leading home-based healthcare provider celebrates 20 years of advancing well-being
BRENTWOOD, Tenn. — Compassus, a leading national provider of integrated home-based care services, is celebrating 20 years of its mission: advancing well-being and honoring quality of life. This milestone reflects two decades of providing compassionate, person-centered care to patients and families across the country as the provider looks to build the next generation of care delivered in the home.
Founded in 2006, Compassus began with a vision to transform care delivery for individuals facing serious illness and health challenges. Over the years, the organization has expanded its footprint, service offerings and partnership model, growing into one of the nation’s leading in-home care providers. Today, Compassus serves more than 180,000 patients annually across 33 states, supported by more than 10,000 teammates.
As healthcare has increasingly shifted beyond traditional care settings, Compassus has helped redefine care delivery in the home through strategic partnerships with many of the nation’s leading not-for-profit and faith-based health systems, sharing financial ownership, core values and a heart for service to our communities. Since joining forces with Ascension in 2020, Compassus has continued expanding its collaborative care model, partnering with Bon Secours Mercy Health and OhioHealth in 2024. In 2025, Compassus expanded its reach across the western United States through a partnership with Providence.
“What began 20 years ago with a steadfast mission to serve patients and families has grown into a national organization with the scale, partnerships and capabilities to help shape the future of home-based care,” said Compassus CEO Mike Asselta. “As we celebrate this milestone, we’re grateful for the colleagues, partners and patients who have shaped our path, and as we look to the next decade, we see tremendous opportunity to expand access to high-quality, integrated care for the communities we serve.”
The organization’s growth has been accompanied by a continued commitment to excellence. Compassus has been recognized among the Nashville Business Journal’s Fastest Growing Companies, named one of Newsweek’s America’s Greatest Workplaces and earned numerous SHPBest™ Top Performer awards for excellence in patient and caregiver satisfaction.
Looking ahead, Compassus will continue investing in innovation, clinical excellence and collaborative care models to support an aging population and meet the growing demand for care at home. Learn more at compassus.com.
