Health Resources:

Home Health care is not an option for everyone. Generally, the person receiving care or treatment at home must be well enough to be cared for in the home setting.

Home Health Services are provided by nurses, therapists, medical social workers and home health aides depending on the services required. The services include Skilled Nursing, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Medical Social Work and Home Health Aide. Services are determined by the appropriate needs of the individual and will be planned, coordinated and made available under the direction of the attending physician and qualified staff.
