Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aveanna Healthcare Holdings Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, and business combinations accounted for as purchases have been included in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 29, 2024 and the results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The results reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for any future period or the year ending December 28, 2024. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2024. Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday that is closest to December 31 of a given year, resulting in either a 52 or 53-week fiscal year. The interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets reflect the accounts of the Company as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023. For the three-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the interim unaudited consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows reflect the accounts of the Company from March 31, 2024 through June 29, 2024 and April 2, 2023 through July 1, 2023 , respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the interim unaudited consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows reflect the accounts of the Company from December 31, 2023, through June 29, 2024 and January 1, 2023 through July 1, 2023. Use of Estimates The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform with U.S. GAAP. In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The standard improves reportable segment disclosure requirements for public business entities primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit (referred to as the “significant expense principle”). The standard will become effective for the fiscal year 2024 annual financial statements and interim financial statements thereafter and will be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard when it becomes effective, beginning with the Company's fiscal year 2024 annual financial statements, and is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the disclosures included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The standard enhances income tax disclosure requirements for all entities by requiring specified categories and greater disaggregation within the rate reconciliation table, disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction, and providing clarification on uncertain tax positions and related financial statement impacts. The standard will be effective for the fiscal year 2025 annual financial statements with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard when it becomes effective beginning with the Company's fiscal year 2025 annual financial statements, and the Company expects the adoption of the standard will impact certain of its income tax disclosures.

Revenue

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue	3. REVENUE The Company evaluates the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows using the five-step process . The Company uses a portfolio approach to group contracts with similar characteristics and analyze historical cash collection trends. Revenue is primarily derived from (i) pediatric healthcare services provided to patients, including private duty nursing and therapy services; (ii) adult home health and hospice services (collectively “patient revenue”); and (iii) the delivery of enteral nutrition and other products to patients (“product revenue”). The services provided by the Company have no fixed duration and can be terminated by the patient or the facility at any time; therefore, each service provided is its own stand-alone contract. Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred due to the short-term nature of the contracts. Services ordered by a healthcare provider in an episode of care are not separately identifiable and therefore have been combined into a single performance obligation for each contract. The Company recognizes revenue as its performance obligations are completed. For patient revenue, the performance obligation is satisfied over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the healthcare services provided. For product revenue, the performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time of delivery of the product to the patient. The Company recognizes patient revenue equally over the number of treatments provided in a single episode of care. Typically, patients and third-party payers are billed within several days of the service being performed, and payments are due based on contract terms. The Company’s lines of business are generally classified into the following categories: private duty services; home health and hospice; and medical solutions. Private Duty Services (“PDS”). The PDS business includes a broad range of pediatric and adult healthcare services, including private duty skilled nursing, non-clinical services, which include employer of record support services and personal care services, pediatric therapy services, rehabilitation services, and nursing services in schools and pediatric day healthcare centers. Home Health & Hospice (“HHH”) . The HHH business provides home health, hospice, and personal care services to predominately elderly patients. Medical Solutions (“MS”). The MS business includes the delivery of enteral nutrition and other products to patients. For the PDS, HHH, and MS businesses, the Company receives payments from the following sources for services rendered: (i) state governments under their respective Medicaid programs (“Medicaid”); (ii) Managed Care providers of state government Medicaid programs (“Medicaid MCO”); (iii) commercial insurers; (iv) other government programs including Medicare, Tricare and ChampVA (“Medicare”); and (v) individual patients. As the period between the time of service and time of payment is typically one year or less, the Company did not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component. Most contracts contain variable consideration; however, it is unlikely that a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainty is resolved, and therefore, the Company has included the variable consideration in the estimated transaction price. The Company determines the transaction price based on established billing rates reduced by contractual adjustments provided to third-party payers and by implicit price concessions which are estimated based on historical collection experience. Management estimates the transaction price on a payer-specific basis given its interpretation of the applicable regulations or contract terms. Updated regulations and contract negotiations occur frequently, necessitating regular review and assessment by management. There were no material revenue adjustments recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. As of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, estimated contractual adjustments and implicit price concessions of $ 75.7 million and $ 62.6 million, respectively, were recorded as reductions to patient accounts receivable balances to arrive at the estimated collectible revenue and patient accounts receivable. Subsequent changes resulting from a patient’s ability to pay are recorded as bad debt expense, which is included as a component of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company did no t record any bad debt expense for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The following table presents revenue by payer type as a percentage of total revenue for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively: For the three-month periods ended For the six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 July 1, 2023 June 29, 2024 July 1, 2023 Medicaid MCO 56.2 % 54.2 % 56.1 % 54.4 % Medicaid 22.9 % 22.6 % 22.6 % 22.3 % Commercial 10.5 % 10.6 % 10.7 % 10.4 % Medicare 10.3 % 12.4 % 10.5 % 12.8 % Self-pay 0.1 % 0.2 % 0.1 % 0.1 % Total revenue 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 % 100.0 %

As of June 29, 2024, the principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loan accrued interest at a rate of 12.50 % . Debt issuance costs related to the term loans are recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt. The balance for debt issuance costs related to the term loans as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023 was $ 27.0 million and $ 29.2 million, respectively. The Company recognized interest expense related to the amortization of debt issuance costs of $ 1.1 million and $ 2.2 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively, and $ 1.2 million and $ 2.5 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively. Issued letters of credit as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023 were $ 31.8 million and $ 31.9 million, respectively. There were no swingline loans outstanding as of June 29, 2024 or December 30, 2023. Borrowing capacity under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $ 168.2 million as of June 29, 2024 and $ 168.1 million as of December 30, 2023. Available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a maintenance leverage covenant that becomes effective if more than 30 % of the total commitment is utilized . The fair value of the Company's long-term obligations was estimated using market-observable inputs from the Company’s comparable peers with public debt, including quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 2 inputs. The aggregate fair value of the Company's long-term obligations was $ 1,234.8 million at June 29, 2024. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants and restrictions under the foregoing instruments at June 29, 2024 .

Securitization Facility [Abstract]
Securitization Facility	5. SECURITIZATION FACILITY On November 12, 2021, the Company (through a wholly owned special purpose entity, Aveanna SPV I, LLC) (the “special purpose entity”) and a lending institution entered into a Receivables Financing Agreement, which, as amended, has a maturity date of July 31, 2026 (as amended, the “Securitization Facility”) . On May 31, 2024, the Company amended the Securitization Facility to increase the maximum amount available thereunder from $ 175.0 million to $ 225.0 million, subject to certain borrowing base requirements . The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $ 2.7 million in connection with the Securitization Facility, which were capitalized and included in other long-term assets. The Company recognized interest expense related to the amortization of debt issuance costs of $ 0.2 million and $ 0.3 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively, and $ 0.1 million and $ 0.2 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively. Pursuant to two separate sale agreements, each of which is among Aveanna Healthcare, LLC, as initial servicer, certain of the Company's subsidiaries and the special purpose entity, the subsidiaries sold substantially all of their existing and future accounts receivable balances to the special purpose entity. The special purpose entity uses the accounts receivable balances to collateralize loans made under the Securitization Facility. The Company retains the responsibility of servicing the accounts receivable balances pledged as collateral under the Securitization Facility and provides a performance guaranty. The outstanding balance under the Securitization Facility was $ 170.0 million and $ 155.0 million at June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The balance accrues interest at a rate equal to the SOFR rate, plus a CSA, plus an applicable margin . The interest rate under the Securitization Facility was 8.58 % at June 29, 2024. The Securitization Facility is accounted for as a collateralized financing activity, rather than a sale of assets; therefore: (i) accounts receivable balances pledged as collateral are presented as assets and the borrowings are presented as liabilities in the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets; (ii) the consolidated statements of operations reflect the interest expense associated with the collateralized borrowings; and (iii) receipts from customers related to the underlying accounts receivable are reflected as operating cash flows and borrowings and repayments under the collateralized loans are reflected as financing cash flows within the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Securitization Facility is included within current liabilities on the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets as it is collateralized by current patient accounts receivable and not because payments are due within one year of the balance sheet date.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company’s earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates, and the Company seeks to mitigate a portion of this risk by entering into derivative contracts. The derivatives the Company currently uses are interest rate swaps and interest rate caps. The Company recognizes derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value on the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets and does not designate the derivatives as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are therefore recorded in earnings throughout the terms of the respective derivatives. The Company currently has two interest rate swap agreements intended to limit its exposure to interest rate risk on its variable rate debt. These swaps expire on June 30, 2026 . Prior to the quarter ended July 1, 2023, the interest rate swap agreements paid a fixed rate of 2.08 % and received the one-month LIBOR rate, subject to a 0.50 % floor. During the quarter ended July 1, 2023, the Company amended its interest rate swap agreements to change the benchmark rate under the agreements from LIBOR to SOFR. Since July 1, 2023, the interest rate swap agreements have paid a fixed rate of 2.03 % and received the one-month SOFR rate, subject to a 0.50 % floor. The aggregate notional amount of the interest rate swaps remained unchanged at $ 520.0 million at June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the interest rate swaps was $ 24.7 million at June 29, 2024 and $ 23.0 million at December 30, 2023 and is included in other long-term assets in the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to these agreements and records all mark-to-market adjustments directly to other income in the consolidated statements of operations, which are included within cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The net settlements incurred with swap counterparties under the swap agreements are recognized through cash flows from financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows due to an other-than-insignificant financing element on the interest rate swaps. The Company has interest rate cap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $ 880.0 million and a cap rate of 2 .96 %. The cap agreements have an expiration date of February 28, 2027 . Prior to the quarter ended July 1, 2023, the cap agreements provided that the counterparty would pay the Company the amount by which LIBOR exceeded 3.00 % in a given measurement period. During the quarter ended July 1, 2023, the Company amended its interest rate cap agreements to provide that the counterparty would pay the Company the amount by which SOFR exceeds 2.96 %. The fair value of the interest rate cap agreements was $ 33.9 million at June 29, 2024 and $ 30.5 million at December 30, 2023 and is included in other long-term assets on the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to interest rate cap agreements and records all mark-to-market adjustments directly to other income in the consolidated statements of operations, which are included within cash flows from operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The following losses and gains from these derivatives not designated as hedging instruments were recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively (amounts in thousands): Statement of Operations For the three-month periods ended Classification June 29, 2024 July 1, 2023 Interest rate cap agreements Other income $ ( 1,408 ) $ 6,974 Interest rate swap agreements Other income $ ( 1,738 ) $ 9,825 Statement of Operations For the six-month periods ended Classification June 29, 2024 July 1, 2023 Interest rate cap agreements Other income $ 3,430 $ ( 527 ) Interest rate swap agreements Other income $ 1,700 $ ( 1,211 ) The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	8. INCOME TAXES The Company’s provision for income taxes is recorded on an interim basis based upon the Company’s estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for the full year applied to “ordinary” income or loss, adjusted each quarter for discrete items. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $ 9.9 million and income tax expense of $ 2.7 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively and an income tax benefit of $ 0.8 million and income tax expense of $ 0.8 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was negative 249.5 % and positive 50.0 % for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 , respectively, and negative 3.3 % and negative 13.4 % for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 differed from the statutory rate of 21 % primarily due to increased current federal and state taxes resulting from certain non-deductible expenses, most notably interest expense, and the changes in the valuation allowance recorded against certain deferred tax assets. For the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 , there were no material changes to the Company’s uncertain tax positions. There has been no change to the Company’s policy that recognizes potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	9. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION Pre-IPO Options and Management Restricted Units The Company recorded compensation expense, net of forfeitures, of $ 0.0 million and $ 0.8 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively, and $ 0.2 million and $ 0.8 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively, which is included in corporate and branch and regional administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Unrecognized compensation expense as of June 29, 2024 associated with these outstanding awards was $ 4.9 million. Director Restricted Stock Units In February 2024, the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") approved grants of 331,950 restricted stock units, with a grant date per share fair value of $ 2.41 , to certain independent Directors ("Director RSUs") under the Company's 2021 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan. Director RSUs vest over a one-year period, and each RSU settles for one share of common stock upon vesting. The Company recorded compensation expense of $ 0.3 million and $ 0.5 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively, and $ 0.4 million and $ 0.6 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively, which is included in corporate expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Unrecognized compensation expense as of June 29, 2024 associated with outstanding director restricted stock units was $ 0.4 million. Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") During the three-month period ended March 30, 2024, the Compensation Committee approved grants of restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") under the Company's 2021 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan. Upon vesting, each RSU and each PSU settles for one share of common stock. The RSUs are subject to a three-year service-based cliff vesting schedule commencing on the date of grant. Compensation cost for the RSUs is measured based on the grant date fair value of each underlying share of common stock and the number of RSUs granted and is recognized over the applicable vesting period on a straight-line basis. During the three-month period ended March 30, 2024, the Company granted 2,873,968 RSUs with a grant date per share fair value of $ 2.41 . The PSUs contain performance criteria based on an adjusted EBITDA target over a three-year performance period. The PSUs are also subject to a three-year service-based cliff vesting schedule commencing on the date of grant . The PSUs have a service and a performance condition, and compensation cost is initially measured based on the grant date fair value of each underlying share of common stock. Cumulative compensation cost is subsequently adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect the current estimation of achieving the performance condition. During the three-month period ended March 30, 2024, the Company granted 2,873,881 PSUs with a weighted average grant date per share fair value of $ 2.41 . Total compensation expense, net of forfeitures, for all outstanding awards under the LTIP described above was $ 2.0 million and $ 3.7 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively, and $ 1.8 million and $ 3.2 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively, which is included in corporate and branch and regional administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Total unrecognized compensation expense for all awards under the LTIP was $ 18.3 million as of June 29, 2024. Senior Management Retention Plan ("SMRP") In the second quarter of 2023, the Compensation Committee approved SMRP awards to certain members of management to be paid in the form of RSUs under the 2021 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan. The awards were granted based on a fixed dollar value for each member of senior management included in the plan. The Company recorded compensation expense, net of forfeitures, of $ 0.8 million and $ 1.7 million during the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 , respectively, which is included in corporate expenses and branch and regional administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. No such expense was recorded during the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023. Unrecognized compensation expense as of June 29, 2024 associated with the remaining SMRP awards was $ 10.2 million. Employee Stock Purchase Plan During the three-month period ended June 29, 2024, no purchase events related to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan occurred. During the six-month period ended June 29, 2024, participants purchased a total of 1,010,635 shares of common stock at a price of $ 1.33 per share. Participants purchased a total of 1,565,933 shares of common stock at a price of $ 0.60 per share during the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023. The Company recorded compensation expense of $ 0.4 million and $ 0.8 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively, and $ 0.2 million and $ 0.5 million for the three and six-month periods ended July 1, 2023, respectively, which is included in corp orate expenses, branch and regional administrative expenses and cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Insurance Reserves As is typical in the healthcare industry, the Company is subject to claims that its services have resulted in patient injury or other adverse effects. The accrued professional liability insurance reserves included in the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets include estimates of the ultimate costs, including third-party legal defense costs, in the event the Company was unable to receive funds from claims made under commercial insurance policies, for claims that have been reported but not paid and claims that have been incurred but not reported at the balance sheet dates. Although substantially all reported claims are paid directly by the Company’s commercial insurance carriers (after the Company satisfies the applicable policy deductible and/or retention), the Company is ultimately responsible for payment of these claims in the event its insurance carriers become insolvent or otherwise do not honor the contractual obligations under the liability policies. The Company is required under U.S. GAAP to recognize these estimated liabilities in its consolidated financial statements on a gross basis; with a corresponding receivable from the insurance carriers reflecting the contractual indemnity provided by the carriers under the related liability policies. Since October 1, 2023, the Company has m aintained primary commercial insurance coverage on a claims-made basis for professional liability claims with a $ 2.0 million per claim deductible, a $ 1.0 million aggregate buffer retention, and $ 4.5 million per claim and annual aggregate limits. Prior to October 1, 2023, the Company maintained primary commercial insurance coverage on a claims made basis for professional liability claims with varying deductibles by policy year from $ 0.5 million to $ 1.5 million on a per claim basis and $ 5.0 million to $ 6.0 million per claim and annual aggregate limits. Moreover, the Company maintains excess insurance coverage for professional liability claims to cover any claims over the aggregate limits. In addition, the Company maintains workers’ compensation insurance with a $ 0.5 million per claim deductible and statutory limits. The Company reimburses insurance carriers for deductible losses under these policies. The Company’s insurance carriers require collateral to secure the Company’s obligation to reimburse insurance carriers for these deductible payments. Collateral as of June 29, 2024 was comprised of $ 22.7 million of issued letters of credit and $ 0.7 million in cash collateral. Collateral as of December 30, 2023 was comprised of $ 22.7 million of issued letters of credit and $ 0.7 million in cash collateral. As of June 29, 2024, insurance reserves totaling $ 104.6 million were included on the interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets, representing $ 42.8 million and $ 61.8 million of reserves for professional liability claims and workers’ compensation claims, respectively. At December 30, 2023, insurance reserves totaling $ 91.8 million were included on the consolidated balance sheets, representing $ 39.4 million and $ 52.4 million of reserves for professional liability claims and workers’ compensation claims, respectively. Litigation and Other Current Liabilities On November 23, 2022, a judgment in the amount of $ 19.8 million was rendered against the Company related to a civil litigation matter in Texas. In March 2023, the plaintiffs attempted to enforce the judgment by seeking a writ of garnishment, and $ 18.4 million was garnished from the Company’s cash accounts. The Company promptly obtained and recorded an $ 18.4 million cash collateralized appellate bond with the state trial court, and such court dissolved the writ of garnishment and ordered the return of the previously garnished funds. All previously garnished funds have been returned to the Company. In July 2023, the Company and the plaintiffs reached a confidential settlement agreement wherein the plaintiffs have agreed to release all claims and extinguish the aforementioned judgment in exchange for a settlement payment. The corresponding appeal of the judgment has been discontinued upon finalization of the settlement, and the Company has secured the return of the underlying collateral for the aforementioned appellate bond. The settlement did not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations. On January 18, 2023, an arbitration award in the amount of $ 7.9 million was rendered against the Company related to a claim under the Company's Texas non-subscriber benefit plan. After the trial court entered a judgment to enforce the arbitration award, the Company promptly obtained a $ 9.1 million collateralized appellate bond and intends to avail itself of all appellate options. The ultimate resolution of this litigated matter is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently a party to various routine litigation incidental to the business. While management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of such proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or overall trends in results of operations, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Management has established provisions within other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, which in the opinion of management represents the best estimate of exposure and adequately provides for such losses that may occur from asserted claims related to the provision of professional services and which may not be covered by the Company’s insurance policies. Management believes that any additional unfavorable provisions would not be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position; however, if an unfavorable ruling on any asserted or unasserted claim were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s net earnings or financial position. The estimate of the potential impact from legal proceedings on the Company’s financial position or overall results of operations could change in the future. Healthcare Regulatory Matters Starting on October 30, 2019 the Company has received grand jury subpoenas issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division (the “Antitrust Division”), requiring the production of documents and information pertaining to nurse wages, reimbursement rates, and hiring activities in a few of its local markets. The Company is fully cooperating with the Antitrust Division with respect to this investigation, and management believes that a loss event is not probable and that this matter will not materially impact the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition. However, based on the information currently available to the Company, management cannot predict the timing or outcome of this investigation or predict the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with the resolution of this matter. On July 19, 2023, the Company received a Civil Investigation Demand issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, United States Attorney’s Office, Middle District of Alabama (the “AUSA”), requiring the production of documents and information pertaining to Comfort Care Hospice, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, regarding issues of (1) improper submission of claims to Medicare and other federal healthcare programs for service to patients who were ineligible or not properly certified for said healthcare services and (2) improper remuneration to medical directors and skilled nursing facilities for patient referrals in violation of certain federal regulations. The Company is fully cooperating with the AUSA with respect to this investigation, and management believes that a loss event is not probable and that this matter will not materially impact the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition. However, based on the information currently available to the Company, management cannot predict the timing or outcome of this investigation or predict the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with the resolution of this matter. Laws and regulations governing the government payer programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future governmental review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action. From time to time, governmental regulatory agencies conduct inquiries and audits of the Company’s practices. It is the Company’s practice to cooperate fully with such inquiries. In addition to laws and regulations governing the Medicaid, Medicaid Managed Care, and Tricare programs, there are a number of federal and state laws and regulations governing matters such as the corporate practice of medicine, fee splitting arrangements, anti-kickback statues, physician self-referral laws, false or fraudulent claims filing and patient privacy requirements. Failure to comply with any such laws or regulations could have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations and financial results. The Company believes that it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of wrongdoing.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	12. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company’s operating segments have been identified based upon how management has organized the business by services provided to customers and how the CODM manages the business and allocates resources. The Company has three operating segments and three reportable segments, Private Duty Services, Home Health & Hospice, and Medical Solutions. The PDS segment predominantly includes private duty skilled nursing services, non-clinical and personal care services, and pediatric therapy services. The HHH segment provides home health and hospice services to predominately elderly patients. Through the MS segment, the Company provides enteral nutrition and other products to adults and children, delivered on a periodic or as-needed basis. The CODM evaluates performance using gross margin (and gross margin percentage). Gross margin includes revenue less all costs of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization, but excludes branch and regional administrative expenses, corporate expenses and other non-field expenses. The CODM does not evaluate a measure of assets when assessing performance. Results shown for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023 are not necessarily those which would be achieved if each segment was an unaffiliated business enterprise. There are no intersegment transactions. The following tables summarize the Company’s segment information for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively (amounts in thousands): For the three-month period ended June 29, 2024 PDS HHH MS Total Revenue $ 407,851 $ 54,630 $ 42,477 $ 504,958 Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization 296,983 25,227 24,481 346,691 Gross margin $ 110,868 $ 29,403 $ 17,996 $ 158,267 Gross margin percentage 27.2 % 53.8 % 42.4 % 31.3 % For the three-month period ended July 1, 2023 PDS HHH MS Total Revenue $ 377,668 $ 55,410 $ 38,867 $ 471,945 Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization 266,170 28,497 $ 22,023 316,690 Gross margin $ 111,498 $ 26,913 $ 16,844 $ 155,255 Gross margin percentage 29.5 % 48.6 % 43.3 % 32.9 % For the six-month period ended June 29, 2024 PDS HHH MS Total Revenue $ 802,860 $ 109,243 $ 83,508 $ 995,611 Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization 591,857 50,866 48,767 691,490 Gross margin $ 211,003 $ 58,377 $ 34,741 $ 304,121 Gross margin percentage 26.3 % 53.4 % 41.6 % 30.5 % For the six-month period ended July 1, 2023 PDS HHH MS Total Revenue $ 750,615 $ 111,536 $ 76,207 $ 938,358 Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation and amortization 534,933 59,592 $ 44,113 638,638 Gross margin $ 215,682 $ 51,944 $ 32,094 $ 299,720 Gross margin percentage 28.7 % 46.6 % 42.1 % 31.9 % For the three-month periods ended For the six-month periods ended Segment Reconciliation: June 29, 2024 July 1, 2023 June 29, 2024 July 1, 2023 Total segment gross margin $ 158,267 $ 155,255 $ 304,121 $ 299,720 Branch and regional administrative expenses 87,972 91,255 175,886 182,963 Corporate expenses 30,245 26,354 60,087 57,289 Depreciation and amortization 2,833 3,491 5,745 7,532 Acquisition-related costs - ( 32 ) - 38 Other operating expense (income) 91 ( 3,305 ) 2,411 ( 3,233 ) Operating income 37,126 37,492 59,992 55,131 Interest income 95 113 197 188 Interest expense ( 39,613 ) ( 37,985 ) ( 79,260 ) ( 73,943 ) Other income 6,371 25,169 24,540 12,981 Income (loss) before income taxes $ 3,979 $ 24,789 $ 5,469 $ ( 5,643 )

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Income (Loss) Per Share	13. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. For purposes of this calculation, outstanding stock options RSUs and PSUs are considered potential dilutive shares of common stock.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 29, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aveanna Healthcare Holdings Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, and business combinations accounted for as purchases have been included in the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition.
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 29, 2024 and the results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, respectively. The results reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for any future period or the year ending December 28, 2024. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2024. Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday that is closest to December 31 of a given year, resulting in either a 52 or 53-week fiscal year. The interim unaudited consolidated balance sheets reflect the accounts of the Company as of June 29, 2024 and December 30, 2023. For the three-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the interim unaudited consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows reflect the accounts of the Company from March 31, 2024 through June 29, 2024 and April 2, 2023 through July 1, 2023 , respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 29, 2024 and July 1, 2023, the interim unaudited consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows reflect the accounts of the Company from December 31, 2023, through June 29, 2024 and January 1, 2023 through July 1, 2023.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform with U.S. GAAP. In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The standard improves reportable segment disclosure requirements for public business entities primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit (referred to as the “significant expense principle”). The standard will become effective for the fiscal year 2024 annual financial statements and interim financial statements thereafter and will be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard when it becomes effective, beginning with the Company's fiscal year 2024 annual financial statements, and is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the disclosures included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The standard enhances income tax disclosure requirements for all entities by requiring specified categories and greater disaggregation within the rate reconciliation table, disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction, and providing clarification on uncertain tax positions and related financial statement impacts. The standard will be effective for the fiscal year 2025 annual financial statements with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard when it becomes effective beginning with the Company's fiscal year 2025 annual financial statements, and the Company expects the adoption of the standard will impact certain of its income tax disclosures.
