What is Health Care in the Home?

Health care in the home is exactly that—health, social and personal care services received in the home, as opposed receiving facility-based care. With home health care, individuals can recover from an illness, treat a disability or rehabilitate from surgery in their home, safely and healthily, without the need to be hospitalized or sent to a care facility for extended periods of time.

Standard services of home health care include skilled nursing, physical therapy and personal care assistance, though additional services are often available. Home health care agencies also vary in size and location. Every agency has a unique service areas dependant on its capabilities and Medicare-certification status, and is also required to have on-call nurses whom are contacted when dealing with after-hours or weekend emergencies.

Home health care is most often prescribed by physicians, or referred to patients as they are discharged from a hospital. However, patients can REQUEST home health care on their own, and it is their CHOICE to decide where they receive such care.
