What do Home Health Agencies do?
Home health agencies provide medically necessary skilled services, such as skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, as well as medical social services, in a patient’s home, often following a hospital discharge or to manage an acute or chronic illness.
These services are part of a personalized care plan developed and supervised by healthcare professionals to help patients recover, maintain their health, and improve their quality of life in a familiar environment.
Skilled Nursing Care: This includes services such as wound care, medication administration, patient education, and monitoring of complex medical conditions.
Therapy Services: Physical therapy to improve movement, occupational therapy for daily living activities, and speech-language pathology for communication and swallowing issues.
Medical Social Services: Provided to help with social and emotional concerns that may affect a patient’s treatment and recovery, including counseling and resource navigation.
Home Health Aide Services: Provide personal care assistance with activities such as bathing, dressing, and feeding, and may also assist with simple exercises or taking vital signs, all under the supervision of a skilled professional.
Medical Supplies and Equipment: Home health agencies can also provide necessary medical supplies and durable medical equipment for use at home.
