Medical Supervision: All services are provided under a plan of care established and monitored by the patient’s physician.

Disease Management and Clinical Path Implementation:
Focusing on education, nutrition, patient compliance, and communication, our disease management programs help to control the disease process and maximize wellness.  The goal is to provide a template of care that can be modified based on individual patient needs. Each path identifies key goals and actions to meet those goals as well as specific teaching to be provided. Patients can often be effectively managed once stabilized via routine phone management. This approach has resulted in reduced hospitalizations and emergency room visits. All paths are developed utilizing an interdisciplinary approach involving all key disciplines. Current paths include diabetes, congestive heart failure, pneumonia, DVT, asthma, COPD, and IDDM. Our care paths are your path to independence.

Nursing: Our home health RNs assess and care for patients of all ages and conditions. Their services included patient observation and assessment, patient and family teaching, the administration of medications, wound care, tracheotomies, gastrostomy tubes and foley catheters, as well as an assortment of other treatments as ordered.
