NAPLES, Fla. - TelAve -- Avow is proud to announce that the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) has notified Avow of its intent to select the organization to provide hospice services in Lee, Glades and Hendry counties, following AHCA's preliminary approval of Avow's Certificate of Need (CON) application. This important decision will expand Avow's compassionate, high-quality hospice care for residents throughout Southwest Florida.

The CON process ensures that new or expanded healthcare services are aligned with the needs of the community while upholding high standards of care. AHCA's decision reflects Avow's more than 40 years of excellence, its consistently high-quality ratings and exceptional caregiver and family satisfaction scores. Residents in the newly approved service areas can expect the same trusted services Avow Hospice has long provided in Collier County.

"As Southwest Florida has grown, Avow's reach and impact have expanded to meet the needs of an evolving community. Now, we look forward to extending that reach even further—to ensure individuals and families in neighboring counties have access to the same level of hospice care that has defined Avow's legacy," said Jaysen Roa, president and CEO of Avow.
