Many conditions previously requiring extended hospital stays are now being treated at home, where patients tend to be happier and more at ease. Home Health Care provides continuity of care in the transition from hospital to home, including medical treatments.
Our home care agencies are accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and are Medicare- and Medicaid-certified. We are ranked in the "Top 500 Home Care Agencies" in the nation (HomeCare EliteTM 2007) and participate in the Georgia Medical Care Foundation (GMCF) Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs) activities. Additionally, we were granted premier status by Home Health Quality Improvement National Campaign 2007. To compare home health care agencies, click here. We accept and file private insurance.
Our integrated team of thoroughly trained professionals includes:
- nurses
- home health assistants
- medical social workers
- physical, occupational and speech therapists.
We take a total-patient approach to treatment, which means that we develop specialized plans of care that are the most appropriate for each patient's individual needs and level of functioning. The goal of these individual plans is to reduce recovery time and optimize independence.
