Home health care is important for individuals who are unable to take care of themselves completely on their own. A combination of skilled and non-skilled professionals support the individual during their time of need. This asset can provide relief for family members acting as primary or secondary caregivers.
There are many reasons why people may need health care at home. Some are recovering from surgery or have a chronic condition requiring ongoing care. Others need assistance with activities of daily living.

The primary benefits of home health care include:
• Care delivered in the comfort of the patient’s home
• Easier for family and friends to visit
• Allows more freedom and independence
• More affordable than a nursing home
• Tailored to the needs of each individual patient
• Reduces re-hospitalizations
