What can I expect on my first home health visit?

At your first visit, a nurse will conduct an initial comprehensive assessment through a combination of interview and hands on assessment. Our assessment will focus on identifying areas where you may benefit from education on self-care management, in addition to providing hands on intervention. Our nurse will review all of your medications and make sure you are taking them correctly and safely, as well as assist you in setting them up if needed. Our nurse will collaborate with your physician and determine the level of care you need. This approach helps to allow you to stay in the comfort of your home and actively engages you and your caregiver in your health care.

The frequency and type of home health visits and the services provide are based on your individualized plan of care. Your doctor may change your plan of care, increasing or decreasing the number of visits or services provided, in order to provide you with the best care possible.
