home health

In-house medical services

Home health refers to medical and personal care services delivered in a patient's residence rather than a hospital or clinic.

A home health aide assists with daily activities like bathing and medication.

Home health care allows patients recovering from surgery or managing chronic conditions to remain in familiar surroundings: Medicare covers home health services for eligible patients.
