Home Health Care Services
Chronic Disease Management
Chronic disease management (CDM) helps people with long-term health conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
Eldercare
Eldercare is the care of older adults who may need assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting.
Medication Education
Medication education is a crucial aspect of home health care, ensuring that patients understand their medications, their proper use, and how to manage potential side effects. Effective medication education empowers patients to take an active role in their healthcare, promoting adherence to their medication regimen and improving overall health outcomes.
Nutrition Planning
Nutrition planning is essential to home health care, ensuring that patients receive the appropriate nutrition to support their health, recovery, and overall well-being. Home health professionals play a crucial role in assessing patients' nutritional needs, developing personalized meal plans, and providing education on healthy eating habits.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy (OT) helps people regain or maintain the skills they need to live independently and participate in meaningful activities of daily living (ADLs). Occupational therapists (OTs) work with individuals of all ages who have physical, cognitive, developmental, or emotional challenges.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy (PT) helps people improve their movement and physical function. PTs work with individuals of all ages who have physical impairments caused by illness, injury, or disability.
Post-operative Recovery
Post-operative recovery is the period of time following surgery, during which the body heals and regains strength and function. The amount of time needed for post-operative recovery varies depending on the type of surgery, the patient's overall health, and other factors.
Remote Patient Monitoring
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is a type of telehealth that uses technology to collect health data from patients outside of the traditional healthcare setting, such as in their homes. This data can then be used to monitor patients' health status, identify potential problems early, and provide care management services.
Skilled Nursing
Skilled nursing care is provided by licensed nurses (either a registered nurse or a licensed practical nurse). Skilled nursing care is provided to patients who have complex medical needs that require regular monitoring and care.
Speech Therapy
Speech therapy is a specialized service provided by licensed speech-language pathologists (SLPs) to individuals who require assistance with communication, swallowing, and cognitive-linguistic skills within the comfort of their own homes. SLPs work closely with patients, their families, and other healthcare professionals to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of speech-language disorders.
Telehealth
In home health care, telehealth allows healthcare providers to monitor patients' health, provide consultations, and deliver care from a distance, reducing the need for frequent in-person visits.
Home Health Aide
Home health aides provide personal care and assistance to patients in their homes. They offer essential support, companionship, and assistance with daily tasks, enabling patients to maintain their independence, dignity, and quality of life.
Medical Social Workers (MSW)
Medical social workers (MSWs) play a crucial role in providing psychosocial support and advocacy for patients facing complex medical, social, and emotional challenges. They work collaboratively with the patient's healthcare team to ensure holistic and personalized care that addresses the patient's overall well-being.
