Home Health is an ideal option for patients who are homebound due to illness, injury, or chronic conditions. It allows them to recover with dignity and comfort, while saving the energy and expense often associated with medical travel.
Importantly, the personalized attention that Home Health nurses provide fosters deep and meaningful relationships. As Andrea Whaley, RN and Home Health Agency Director, shared:
“Our patients become a piece of our hearts and are loved like family. It has definitely made me a better person being able to serve the patients as well as our community.”
How Home Health Works
