There are no specific requirements or qualifying factors for in-home care. The real determining factor is if you feel that it is time for additional support in your home (or the home of a loved one). If you believe that you or your loved one are ready for in-home care, the next step is to schedule a free in-home consultation where you will meet with your local Client Care Liaison, who will be able to help you determine which care services are needed, and the schedule of care that would be best for you or your loved one.
Skilled Nursing care performed by a Registered Nurse in your home is the only type of care that requires permission from a doctor to perform care. If you require this type of care, we will work with your doctor to obtain and follow the Medical Plan-of-Care. Lean more here.
