Local context

Coming home to Lakeland

Lakeland is known as "Swan City" for the mute swans that glide across downtown's Lake Morton and Lake Mirror, descendants of a pair gifted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1957. For many patients, recovering at home means being back near those familiar lakeside walks and the neighbors they've known for decades rather than in an unfamiliar facility.

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 Polk County and Tampa Bay, including:

  • Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center
  • Winter Haven Hospital
  • Bartow Regional Medical Center

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.

Neighborhoods we serve in Lakeland

We bring care to Historic Lake Morton, Lake Hollingsworth, Cypress Lakes (55+ community), Colonnades (55+ community), Sandpiper Golf & Country Club, and Foxwood Lake Estates (55+ community) — and the surrounding Polk County communities.

However you're covered

We're a Medicare-certified, locally owned agency working with Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Call (813) 400-0324 and we'll help confirm your coverage. See coverage & payment.

Common question

Questions from Lakeland families

I'm being discharged from Lakeland Regional Health. Can you provide home health care at my house here in Lakeland?

Yes. After a hospital stay at Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center or another local hospital, our clinicians come directly to your home anywhere in Lakeland and the surrounding Polk County communities. We coordinate with the hospital's discharge planners so skilled nursing, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and medical social work can begin promptly. For patients who qualify under Medicare, these skilled services are covered; personal-care-only help without a skilled need is not Medicare-covered, and we're happy to walk you through what applies to your situation.
