When Home Care Makes Sense


VNA Community Healthcare brings calm and focus to the turmoil that surrounds a family healthcare challenge. But, how do you know if home health care makes sense for your patient?

 

Home health care services provide assistance in a wide variety of situations:

  • Care at home after a hospital stay or illness
  • Home therapy after a fall or injury
  • Coping with a new illness, treatment, medication or diet
  • Medical procedures performed at home
  • Care for a frail senior who is falling, confused or whose symptoms are getting worse
  • Treatment of non-healing wounds
  • Monitoring a changing or persistent medical condition

 Our goal it to provide patients with this type of care in the comfort and security of their own homes. Patients like:

  • Martin, who has a decubitus ulcer and needs regular wound care
  • Felicia, an 80-year old with dementia who forgets to take her medications
  • Judith, a CHF patient with increasing edema who needs monitoring • Jacob, an 83-year old who has fallen at home
  • Kevin, a cardiac patient with new hypertensive and lipid lowering medications
  • Kathleen, who recently had joint replacement surgery and needs physical therapy

By referring to VNA Community Healthcare, you have a professional team working with you in the care and monitoring of your patients. Our work together ensures the best care for patients in the comfort of their home, promotes better results, and prolongs patients’ independence.
