Home Care

We Make Being Home Easier
Whether it's coming home from the hospital, or dealing with a long-term illness, finding good home health care is often the key to being able to stay at home. The BAPTIST HEALTH Home Health Network is here to provide that peace of mind - with a team of professionals who bring health care to you where and when you need it.

With your physician, our nurses and therapists design and carry out a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Your home care team keeps in close contact with your physician as well, so treatments can be adjusted to keep pace with your progress. The cost of home care services is often covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most private insurance. For even more information, we invite you to visit our new web site!

We Offer Healthy Solutions
Our goal for home care is twofold. First, we offer continuity of care, which helps to create the best possible living and health environment. Second, we give you a healthcare option that fosters independence. To meet these goals, we offer you the following services:

    Skilled Nursing Visits:
    Our team of registered nurses provide intermittent patient care including the administration of medication or prescribed treatment. These nurses also monitor vital signs, obtain lab specimens, administer wound care, provide patient education, and assess the patient's response to treatment. They coordinate your nursing care directly with your physician, and are qualified to teach you and your family members how to take care of your needs.

    Home Health Aides:
    Under the supervision of a registered nurse, trained home health aides deliver personal care and attention such as bathing, personal grooming, dressing and even meal preparation. They also assist with ambulation and exercise.

    Physical Therapy:
    Physical therapists can help you overcome or compensate for physical limitations. Therapists can teach you how to adapt or relearn previous skills, and help you complete therapeutic exercise programs.

    Occupational Therapy:
    Occupational therapists are also available to help you achieve independence. They will teach you how to utilize the physical resources you have in order to perform everyday tasks.

    Speech Therapy:
    For patients with specific speech or swallowing disorders, a speech therapist may be assigned to help. Speech therapists concentrate on speech articulation and hearing disorders, and administer language and voice disorder treatments.

    Social Work:
    Social workers can help you and your family deal with the stress that frequently accompanies serious illness by offering counseling, short-term mental health therapy and providing crisis intervention. In this way, every aspect of your care - social, environmental, economic and emotional - is addressed.
