How Home Health Care Starts
Your Doctor Refers You
Home health care starts with a doctor's order — often arranged before you leave the hospital. You can ask for us by name.

The First Nursing Visit

The first weeks home, when things can go wrong fastest.
After surgery
Joint replacements, heart surgery and other operations.
Heart and lung conditions
Heart failure, COPD and keeping symptoms in check.

Recovering At Home
After Dad's heart surgery the nurse came twice a week and the therapist three times. Six weeks later he walked to the mailbox on his own.
The physical therapist set up exercises around my own stairs and kitchen. I was nervous about coming home after my knee replacement. I didn't need to be.
They called the day my mother left the hospital, and the nurse was at her door the next morning. Every question we had, someone answered.

Home Health Care Questions
What's the difference between home health and home care?
Home health is skilled medical care — nurses and therapists — ordered by a doctor for a set period. Home care is non-medical help with daily life, like bathing, meals and companionship.
Does Medicare cover home health care?
Usually, yes, when a doctor orders it, you need part-time skilled nursing or therapy, and leaving home takes considerable effort. We check your coverage before the first visit.
Can I choose which agency provides my care?
Yes. If you're offered home health care, you can ask your doctor or discharge planner to send the referral to us.
How long does home health care last?
Until your goals are met — often a few weeks. Your doctor reviews the plan regularly and can extend it if you still need skilled care.
What if I have a problem at night?
Patients can reach a nurse on call 24 hours a day. For emergencies, always call 911 first.
