How do I qualify for Home Care?
Skilled Home Health: You must be homebound, require intermittent, skilled nursing or rehabilitative care, and be unable to participate in outpatient services or programs. Services are rendered in accordance with physician’s orders. Medicare, Medi-Cal and private insurance companies have specific guidelines for home care coverage.
Private Care Services: We all want to be independent, meeting our own needs and creating no burden for those who care for us…but sometimes very young, the elderly ill or disabled persons have special needs…sometimes families can’t provide all the help and the choice to stay at home becomes difficult. Our services include: companionship, assistance with activities and with daily living (dressing, bathing, hair/skin care), grocery shopping, transportation, assistance with housework, meal preparation and live-in services. All that is needed to start these services in the client’s name and phone number.
