Narrative

Home healthcare is a Medicare benefit that can send a team of care professionals to your home. This team may include a nurse, therapist, aide, or other care professional. These professionals work with your doctor to deliver a personal plan of care to your home.

Home healthcare can help you recover after a hospitalization or surgery or help you control the symptoms of a chronic illness such as diabetes, COPD, or heart failure. We can also help you manage your meds to ensure you are taking the right ones in the right amounts at the right time. The idea is to help you recover more fully, keep you in your home, and help you stay as independent as possible. We also work to teach you and those around you about your care. Simply put, this important benefit helps you live your life to the fullest with care that’s delivered right in the comfort of home.

Hospice is a positive, empowering form of care designed to provide comfort and support to patients and their families when a life-limiting illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments. Patients who may benefit from hospice include patients with terminal cancer, patients in the end stages of

• Heart Disease
• Lung Disease
• Kidney Disease
• Stroke
• Alzheimer’s, Dementia
• HIV/AIDs
• ALS
• patients with a general failure to thrive

The goal of hospice is to neither prolong life nor hasten death, but to help patients live as dignified and pain-free as possible.
