Home health care includes skilled nursing care as well as other skilled care services, like physical and occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, and medical social services.
These services are given by a variety of skilled health care professionals at home. The home health staff provides and helps coordinate the care and/or therapy your doctor orders. Along with the doctor, home health staff create a care plan, which is a written plan for your care. It tells what services you will get to reach and keep your best physical, mental, and social well being. The home health staff keeps your doctor up-to-date on how you are doing and updates your care plan as needed.
The need for home health care has grown for many reasons. Medical science and technology have improved. Many treatments that could once be done only in a hospital can now be done at home. Also, home health care is usually less expensive and can often be just as effective as care in a hospital or skilled nursing facility. And just as important, most patients and their families prefer to stay at home rather than be in the hospital or a nursing home.
Since most home health care is temporary and part-time, patients (and their informal caregivers) need to learn how to identify and care for possible problems, like confusion or shortness of breath. While you get home health care, home health staff teach you (and those who help you) to continue any care you may need, including medication, wound care, therapy, and managing stress. It is important to know that just because a patient's health condition (such as heart failure or diabetes) is not expected to get better, patients can usually still get better at the areas covered by the quality measures.
The goal of short-term home health care is rehabilitation. It helps you get better, regain your independence, and become as self-sufficient as possible. The goal of long-term home health care (for chronically ill or disabled people) is to maintain your highest level of ability or health, and help you learn to live with your illness or disability.
Examples of skilled home health services include:
* wound care for pressure sores or a surgical wound
* respiratory care, like oxygen or a nebulizer
* physical and occupational therapy
* speech-language therapy
* patient and caregiver education
* intravenous or nutrition therapy
* injections
Examples of personal care and support services include:
* help with basic daily activities like getting in and out of bed, dressing, bathing, eating, and using the bathroom
* help with light housekeeping, laundry, shopping, and cooking
