Palmetto sits on the north bank of the mile-wide Manatee River, an easygoing, river-hugging town where recovery can happen with a water view and a slow-paced, neighborly rhythm. From the downtown riverwalk to the 55+ enclaves off Artisan Lakes, home is close to Bradenton's hospitals just across the river, so getting well doesn't have to mean leaving the community you know.
When you or a loved one is discharged from a local hospital, our clinicians pick up care at home. We regularly coordinate with discharge planners and physicians at hospitals across Manatee County and Tampa Bay, including:
Hospital names are listed for reference only. A&Z Health Services is an independent agency and is not affiliated with or endorsed by these hospitals.

Common question
Yes. We regularly pick up patients discharged from Manatee Memorial Hospital and HCA Florida Blake Hospital just across the Manatee River, and our clinicians come to homes throughout Palmetto, Ellenton, and the surrounding 55+ communities like Esplanade at Artisan Lakes and Del Webb BayView. For patients who qualify under Medicare, skilled services such as nursing and physical, occupational, or speech therapy are typically covered; personal-care-only help without a skilled need is not Medicare-covered, so we'll walk you through what applies to your situation.
