home healthcare
Medical visits home
Home healthcare is medical or supportive care provided in a patient's residence rather than a hospital or clinic.
Services range from skilled nursing and physical therapy to assistance with daily activities like bathing and medication management.
Home healthcare allows patients—especially the elderly or chronically ill—to receive treatment while remaining in familiar surroundings: Medicare covers home healthcare for qualifying conditions.
