Adventist HealthCare offers both home assistance and home health services, providing professional care and support in a safe and familiar space. Here's how to identify which service may be the right fit.
HOME HEALTH
Home health services are ideal for anyone recovering from surgery, managing chronic illness, disability or needing medical support. Home health brings medical care to you. At Adventist HealthCare Home Health, a team develops a personalized care plan to support a person's independence while ensuring their health needs are met. Services may include:
- Nursing care: Medication management, post-operative care, wound care
- Therapy services: Occupational, speech and physical therapies
- Medical social services: Help with financial assessments, advance care planning
"When health issues arise, choosing a caregiver can be overwhelming," said Susan Lightner, Adventist HealthCare's Home Health director. "We want to make the process seamless and stress-free. We'll listen to your needs to find the right solution."
To qualify for home health services, you or your loved one must be homebound and have a referral from a physician. Adventist HealthCare works with Medicare, Medicaid and most major insurance providers.
HOME ASSISTANCE
If you or your family member need extra support with daily activities rather than medical care, Home Assistance can help. Our compassionate caregivers can assist with:
- Bathing
- Grocery shopping
- Light housekeeping
- Meal preparation
- Medication reminders
- Personal care
- Transportation to and from medical appointment
Home Assistance is ideal after an illness, injury or surgery. You can arrange hourly or live-in care, depending on your family's needs. Most important, our caregivers provide companionship, offering physical, mental and emotional support to enhance your loved one's quality of life.
"No matter what a family needs, we are here to guide them through the process and ensure that loved ones receive the care and support they deserve," Susan said.
