home health aides
Domestic medical assistants
Home health aides are workers who provide basic medical and personal care to patients in their homes.
They assist with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and meal preparation, and may monitor vital signs or administer medications under supervision.
The role bridges healthcare and domestic assistance, serving elderly, disabled, or recovering patients who don't require hospitalization: Medicare covers home health aides for qualifying conditions.
