    About Matrix Home Care

    Matrix Home Care has brought dignified, personalized care into the homes of Floridians since 1999. We provide four integrated lines of care: home care, catastrophic and workers' compensation care, independent senior care, and specialty nursing including ostomy care, wound management, infusion therapy, and rehabilitation. Our clinicians, RNs, LPNs, home health aides, CNAs, and physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapists, are licensed, trained, and available 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

    What sets us apart is our Champion Program. Each client is paired with a Champion who oversees the non-clinical side of care, coordinating the details around a customized plan so families stay connected and clients keep their routines, preferences, and independence. We match caregivers to the person, not just the diagnosis.

    With leadership rooted in Florida and decades of combined experience in health care, Matrix is built to coordinate complex, multidisciplinary care while keeping the personal touch that helps clients thrive at home.
