How Home Health Works
Skilled nursing and therapy visits in the comfort of home—so you can focus on healing, safety, and independence.
Who this is for
Home health is often a good fit if you (or your loved one) are recovering after a hospital or rehab stay, managing a new diagnosis, or need skilled support at home—like nursing visits, wound care, IV therapy, or therapy.
Step-by-step
Step 1
Start with a quick call
You can reach us through a family call, a doctor’s referral, or a hospital/rehab discharge planner. We’ll ask a few simple questions and explain next steps.
Step 2
We confirm what you need—and how to start
We’ll review which services may help (RN, wound, IV, PT/OT, MSW) and what documentation is needed to begin.
Step 3
Medicare or Private Pay: we verify the details
If you’re using Medicare, coverage depends on eligibility and medical need. If you’re private pay, we’ll review options and scheduling—clearly and without pressure.
Step 4
We coordinate the referral/order
For Medicare-covered skilled home health, a provider order/referral is typically required. If you’re being discharged from the hospital or rehab, we’ll coordinate with the team to help keep things moving.
Step 5
We schedule your first visit
Often within about 24 hours once referral/coverage details are confirmed, depending on clinical needs and documentation.
Step 6
Ongoing visits and updates
Your clinician visits as scheduled, tracks progress, and communicates updates as appropriate. Care plans can change as needs change.
What we can help with
- Skilled Nursing (RN visits) – health checks, medication support, symptom monitoring, and education
- Wound Care – assessment, dressing changes, and wound support
- IV Therapy – skilled IV support as ordered
- Physical Therapy (PT) – strength, balance, walking safety, mobility
- Occupational Therapy (OT) – daily activities like bathing, dressing, and safe routines at home
- Medical Social Work (MSW) – support with resources, planning, and navigating care needs
Medicare home health eligibility (plain-language)
What “homebound” can mean
Medicare home health often requires that you generally meet homebound criteria—meaning it’s difficult to leave home without help, or leaving takes considerable effort (for example due to illness, injury, or mobility limitations).
We’ll explain this in simple terms and help you understand what applies to your situation.
What else Medicare typically requires
- A provider certifies a need for skilled care (such as RN, PT, or OT)
- A provider order/referral is typically needed
- Coverage and visit frequency can vary by medical need and documentation
