Physical and Occupation Therapy as well as nursing services could help strengthen your loved one, improve their safety and potentially increase their ability to stay in their home longer!!
Home Health services are usually covered by Medicare and other insurance and there could be little or no cost to patient for this care.
Here are some other situations that could help qualify someone for services:
*Are you homebound? Is it difficult for you to get out of your home for appointments and outings?
*Have you had a recent change in medications or do you need IV therapy?
*Have you received a new diagnosis that you would require extended education about?
* Have you had a recent fall? Do you experience episodes of weakness or dizziness? Could you use some core strengthening or balance training?
* Have you had surgery or an illness that kept you in the hospital for more than 3 days in the last 30 days?
