- Who selects my home health care provider?
You and your loved ones have the right to choose your in-home health care provider.
- When should I consider home health care?
If you or someone you love recently had surgery, changed medications, were hospitalized, have trouble with maintaining balance, or have been diagnosed with a new illness, it may be time for in-home health care. Under Medicare rules, a person qualifies for home health care if he or she needs skilled medical care and is homebound (which means leaving home requires a considerable amount of effort).
- Will Residential Home Health work with my doctor?
Our dedicated and skilled clinicians help coordinate the care each patient’s doctor prescribes. In support of your doctor’s orders, we develop a written plan for your care that explains what services you will receive to reach your physical, mental, and social goals. We pride ourselves on staying in touch with our patients’ doctors; they are able to access visit notes 24/7 through our secure, online, HIPAA-compliant Physician Portal.
- I struggle with pain and other symptoms related to my serious illness, but I am not ready for hospice care – are there other home care options for me?
Yes! In addition to our home health and hospice services, Residential also provides palliative care. Unlike hospice care, you do not have to be dying or stop curative treatment to receive palliative care and all its benefits. Anyone with a serious illness can receive palliative, regardless of life expectancy. Our palliative options include physical, emotional, and psycho-social support to improve quality of life for patients facing a debilitating illness.
