Respectful Help With
That Extend Beyond Medical Care
Home health aides provide hands-on support that helps patients remain clean, comfortable and safe while receiving skilled home health services.
Personal Assistance With Dignity
Under the supervision of a nurse or therapist and according to the patient’s plan of care, a home health aide may assist with personal care needs that have become difficult because of illness, injury or disability.
Services May Include
- Bathing and grooming
- Oral hygiene
- Dressing assistance
- Toileting and elimination needs
- Safe ambulation and transfers
- Assistance with prescribed exercises
- Skin care and other approved personal care tasks
Home health aide services are not the same as around-the-clock custodial or housekeeping services. Frequency and covered tasks are determined by the patient’s plan of care and payer requirements.
The Loving Light Difference
Compassionate assistance can make each day safer and more comfortable.
