Who Benefits from Home Health Care?
Home Health Care services are delivered to recovering, disabled, chronically
or terminally ill persons who need medical, nursing, social or therapeutic
skilled treatments in their own homes. Older adults often elect to live
independent, noninstitutionalized lives and receive home care services
as they experience physical limitations. Additionally, adults diagnosed
with terminal illness often choose to be cared for at home, receiving
compassion while maintaining dignity at the end of life.

providers that aid in your recovery at home. The team members include:
