La atención domiciliaria es un servicio que brinda tratamiento en la comodidad de su hogar.
Home Health services include in-home nursing and therapy services for those recovering from illness, surgery or managing a chronic condition or pain - at home.
“Home” means where you live. This could be a personal residence, assisted or independent living community, nursing home or wherever you call home.
Home Health works with you and your physician to create a care plan to help you optimize your health and independence wherever you call home. With the additional goal of reducing unplanned emergency room visits and re-hospitalization, a plan of care is developed and tailored to meet your individual needs.
