Home care services enable seniors and disabled individuals to remain at home, surrounded by family and friends, while having their health care needs managed. They may be administered by a family member or through a professional caregiver that is supervised by a nurse, physician or social worker. These services can range from personal assistance with daily tasks, to wound care and medical equipment, and may be covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance.
Personal senior care services are a Medicare-certified benefit that can help patients recover from an illness or injury at home, so they can avoid unnecessary hospitalizations or skilled nursing facility placement. They are provided by a team of professionals, including registered nurses (RN’s), licensed practical and vocational nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech language pathologists, and home health aides.
From Companionship to Medical Assistance: Diving Into Azalea Home Care’s Service Portfolio
Licensed home care services are typically provided by non-medical agencies that are contracted with a managed long term care plan (MLTC). They provide daily support services for adults of all ages who need help with activities of daily living, such as bathing and grooming, meal preparation, housekeeping, transportation, laundry, shopping, and errands. The Licensed Home Care Services Agency will work closely with you and your physician to develop a comprehensive care plan that addresses your specific home health needs, goals, and preferences.
Unskilled home care is typically not covered by Medicare or health insurance, but it can be very helpful to elderly adults who have a difficult time living alone. This type of home care is more focused on companionship and activities that promote a sense of well-being, including errands, meals, and regular interaction with family members or friends.
