WHY CHOOSE HOME HEALTH ?
PRIVACY AND COMFORT Most patients prefer the privacy and comfort of their own home when recovering from illnesses , injury and or surgery .
SHORTER RECOVERY TIME Clinical studies have shown that many patients who are allowed to recover at home have better outcomes than those patients who recover in a hospital .
LESS STRESS FOR LOVED ONES Home health provides education to patients and caregivers on how to properly monitor and manage illnesses and recovery . Patients receiving home health are also regularly assessed by trained medical professionals so that patients and caregivers are not left to guess as to the patient ’ s medical condition or progress .
FEWER HOSPITALIZATIONS Clinical studies have shown that patients who receive home health services require fewer readmissions to the hospital than patients who do not receive home health services .
