The History of 1st American Home Health Care Services
1st American Home Health Care Services was founded in 2005 with the goal of providing high-quality care to patients in the comfort of their own homes. Our founder, a registered nurse with over 20 years of experience in the healthcare industry, recognized that many patients prefer to receive care at home rather than in a hospital or long-term care facility. With this in mind, she set out to create a home health care agency that would provide comprehensive and compassionate care to patients of all ages.
Our Range of Services for Patients
At 1st American Home Health Care Services, we offer a wide range of services to meet the needs of our patients. Our services include:
Comprehensive Care for Seniors
We understand that seniors may have unique health care needs, which is why we offer comprehensive care for seniors. Our services include assistance with activities of daily living, medication management, wound care, and more. We work closely with our patients and their families to develop a care plan that meets their specific needs and goals.
Pediatric Home Health Services
We also provide pediatric home health services for children with complex medical needs. Our team of experienced caregivers are trained to provide specialized care to children with conditions such as cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and other chronic illnesses. We work closely with our patients' pediatricians and other healthcare providers to ensure that they receive the best possible care.
Post-Hospitalization Care
After a hospital stay, many patients require additional care to fully recover. Our post-hospitalization care services include wound care, medication management, physical therapy, and more. We help our patients transition from the hospital to their home, providing the support they need to regain their independence.
Improving Quality of Life Through Home Health Care
At 1st American Home Health Care Services, our goal is to improve the quality of life for our patients. By providing care in the comfort of their own homes, we help our patients maintain their independence and dignity. We also work with our patients to develop a care plan that focuses on their specific needs and goals. Our caregivers provide not only medical care, but also emotional support and companionship, which can be just as important for improving quality of life.
Experienced and Compassionate Caregivers
All of our caregivers are experienced and compassionate professionals who are dedicated to providing the best possible care to our patients. We carefully screen and train all of our caregivers to ensure that they have the skills and knowledge necessary to provide high-quality care. We also match our caregivers with our patients based on their specific needs and preferences, ensuring that our patients receive personalized care.
Home Health Care vs. Facility Care: Which is Right for You?
Many patients and their families struggle with the decision of whether to choose home health care or facility care. While both options have their benefits, home health care offers many advantages over facility care. Home health care allows patients to receive care in the comfort of their own homes, which can be less stressful and more convenient than receiving care in a facility. Home health care also allows for more personalized care, as caregivers can focus solely on the patient's needs without being distracted by other patients. Finally, home health care can be more cost-effective than facility care, as patients do not have to pay for room and board.
Insurance Coverage for Home Health Care
Many insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, cover home health care services. Our team can help patients and their families navigate the insurance coverage process and ensure that they receive the maximum benefits available to them. We also offer competitive pricing for patients who do not have insurance coverage.
