Apricot; Advanced Home Health and Hospice

Pittsburgh, PA — January 21, 2026 — Advanced Home Health and Hospice announced today the deployment of Apricot, an AI-powered documentation platform that reduces the time clinicians spend on documentation while maintaining accuracy and quality.

Documentation is among the most demanding requirements in home health, often requiring clinicians to spend hours completing records during and after patient visits. By adopting Apricot, Advanced Home Health and Hospice is reducing this burden, supporting clinician satisfaction, and allowing care teams to spend more time focused on patient care.

“People choose healthcare because they love caring for others,” said Rich Griffin, Owner and CEO of Advanced Home Health and Hospice.

“Apricot allows our staff to spend more of their time doing the thing they love without compromising the necessary documentation. We’re thrilled to have a partner in Apricot that is aligned with our vision for the future and how technology can be used to improve the lives of our clinicians and patients.”

“An OASIS Start of Care is the hardest and most time-consuming document in home health,” said Katie Mickolay, Branch Director at Advanced Home Health and Hospice.

Apricot is attacking that truth by modernizing documentation, giving clinicians back their time, and supporting agencies like Advanced Home Health and Hospice without sacrificing quality or compliance,” said Trent Smith, CEO of Apricot.said Trent Smith, CEO of Apricot.
