- Light Housekeeping – A Home Health Aide professional can do whatever light housekeeping duties the patient may have to assist in keeping the home clean and orderly.
- Companionship – Our Home Health Aide professionals can simply provide you or your loved one companionship. Whether it is shopping, a walk outside or a cup of coffee, a home health aide can help with one of the most important aspects of a patient’s health, their quality of life.
Homecare Therapies will work hard to match the right Home Health Aide professional who will not only perform the duties you seek, but also be compatible personally. Home Health Aides often spend more time with patients than anyone else, so they become a vital link between the patient, his or her family members, and other health care providers. They work under the supervision of our Director of Patient Services, a registered nurse, and follow a customized plan of care. A simple call to our office will determine if a home health aide will fulfill your needs.
Home Health Aide services can be short or long term depending on your needs and maybe utilized for a few hours, the entire day or overnight. Our goal is to match the right Home Health Aide professional to the patient and then customize a program that is right for the patient. Over time you can alter your Home Health Aide coverage to suit your needs.
