Skilled Home Health Care is a short-term rehabilitative service for individuals recovering from an illness, injury or recent hospital stay. Services include physical, occupational and speech therapy, skilled nursing, wound care, social work and personal care assistance with activities of daily living. When prescribed by a physician, certified skilled home health care is often covered by Medicare or private insurance.

In-home Personal Care is designed for individuals who need help with daily tasks such as cooking, cleaning, transportation, medication reminders, companionship, and assistance with bathing, dressing or personal care. The goal is to keep these individuals living safely in their home for as long as possible. In-home personal care is traditionally a private pay service, but some long-term care insurance plans may cover the hourly rates.

Palliative Care focuses on providing individuals with symptom management and pain relief associated with an chronic or life-threatening illness. The palliative care team may include doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains and therapists. Palliative Care may be an alternative for individuals who are continuing curative treatments and aren’t quite ready physically or emotionally for hospice services.

Telehealth is an innovative way to monitor a patient’s vital signs at home without visiting a doctor office. Nurses receive data daily about a patient’s weight, heart rate, blood-oxygen levels, blood pressure and other vital signs, in order to monitor their recovery or ongoing status related to a chronic medical condition.
