WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HOME HEALTH CARE? 
 

  • Physicians find many patients recover sooner and more comfortably in the familiar surroundings of their home. We coordinate with hospitals and nursing homes to help people return home as quickly as possible and resume their normal activities.
  • Families tend to stay more involved in their loved one’s care and patients feel more independent at home.
  • Home care gives patients the opportunity to be reunited with family and friends in familiar surroundings and still receive the care they need.
  • Professional staff work closely with a patient’s personal physician to tailor care treatment plans to their individual needs.
  • Home care prevents or postpones institutionalization.

We work with patients who have been diagnosed with various diseases, including Alzheimer’s/dementia, cancer, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, strokes, heart illnesses etс. They all receive professional help and healthcare.
