What is Home Health Care?
Fast Fact: In most cases, a “Home Health Care” company is one that provides services covered by Medicare under specific situations. A company that provides similar services but does not bill Medicare is usually called “Private Duty” or “Home Care”.
There’s no place like home, especially as you recover from an illness, surgery, or an injury. Home health care companies offer a wide range of professional health services in the comfortable, familiar environment of your home — where family and friend can provide support and encouragement. Home Health Care can help make the transition from hospital to home a smooth one.
In some instances, home care can be a cost-effective alternative to hospitalization or a rehabilitation facility.
Advancements in medicine make it possible for state-of-the-art treatments to be administered safely and efficiently in the home. Health care at home allows people to receive medical treatments in comfortable surroundings while not giving up their independence and dignity.
