★HOME HEALTH CARE★
Our clinicians at Custom Care Home Health are trained to assist you in recovering from an illness or hospital stay. Our team-based approach to home health care will be there for you and your family in promoting an optimal and speedy recovery.
Home health care refers to a wide range of services and supportive care provided at home by trained and licensed professionals under the continuing supervision of your doctor. It is usually less expensive and more convenient than being in a hospital or skilled nursing facility. Many former home health patients feel they recovered faster surrounded by their family and friends at home.
Home health care can be short term, helping you to regain self-sufficiency after an illness, injury or operation. In cases where longer term home health care is required, the goal is to help you maintain the highest level of health and live independently as long as possible. Prior hospitalization is not a requirement for home health care services. However, your doctor does need to refer you and develop a plan for your care.
