SERVICES

When you need assistance to manage, observe and evaluate the care of your loved one, turn to our skilled nursing services. We can help improve conditions or prevent a current condition from worsening – so your loved one can feel better, function more independently and learn to take charge of his or her health needs.

Our skilled nursing services are provided by a registered professional nurse in your loved one's home when prescribed by a physician. Services include, but are not limited to:

» Initial assessment and evaluations
» Pre and post-operative care
» Skilled nursing assessment with obtaining and monitoring vitals
» Catheter care/change
» Diabetic care and Pulmonary care

Skilled nursing may also be provided as part of your loved one's Part A Medicare benefit. If an individual is eligible for home health skilled services, he or she can also receive part-time assistance with personal care needs from a home health aide. This medically necessary skilled care (nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language therapy) is ordered by a physician. Your loved one is required to be "homebound" as a condition of eligibility for these services.
