National Home Care Month
Click here for more info
Each November, the Arizona Association for Home Care (AAHC) in partnership with the National Association for Home Care celebrates Home Care Month to honor care giving heroes who make a difference in the lives of patients and the families they serve. For this year’s celebration, AAHC has developed a statewide project, "Being Prepared on the Home Front".  

Call to Action! Share Your Concerns with Congress! The Arizona Association for Home Care (AAHC) has joined the National Association for Home Care & Hospice in a grassroots campaign to educate our legislators on the effect drastic cuts and other proposed legislation have on our ability to provide accessible quality care to our patients and families.
