What is Home Health Care?

Home health care refers to a wide range of medical and non-medical services provided in a patient’s home to promote their health and well-being. These services are typically delivered by skilled healthcare professionals, including nurses, therapists, aides, and other trained caregivers. Home health care services can be customized to meet the specific needs of patients of all ages, from infants to seniors.

1. Skilled Nursing Care: Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses provide a variety of medical services, including wound care, medication management, injections, and monitoring of vital signs.
2. Physical Therapy: Physical therapists help patients regain strength, mobility, and independence through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and assistive devices.
3. Occupational Therapy: Occupational therapists assist patients in performing activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, and cooking, to improve their independence and quality of life.
4. Speech Therapy: Speech therapists work with patients to improve communication skills, swallowing function, and cognitive abilities through specialized exercises and techniques.
5. Personal Care Assistance: Certified nursing assistants and home health aides provide assistance with personal hygiene, grooming, toileting, and mobility.
