Home Care is fast
becoming the method of choice for providing post-hospital and
chronic care throughout the country. Modern Home Care agencies
offer services that most would associate only with a hospital or
long-term care facility. In addition to providing nursing care
and assistance in daily living, agencies now offer dialysis,
intravenous medication administration, and rehabilitation
therapy.
A quality Home Care agency serves not only the patient, but the
entire family. Their staff makes certain that the home offers a
safe environment and educates the family to become effective care
givers. As the primary care giver, Agency staff serves as the
eyes and ears of the physician by monitoring the patient's
medical condition and responses to medication and treatment.
As a consumer, be sure that the staff is fully certified and
credentialed. Accreditation is an excellent barometer of the
agency's ability to provide quality care. If you would like a
