Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is personal care in a home health setting?

Who can benefit from personal care services?
These services are ideal for seniors, individuals recovering from surgery, people with disabilities, and those managing chronic conditions who need support with daily routines. Personalized care plans can be tailored to meet each individual’s unique needs and preferences.
How is personal care different from medical care at home?

Is it possible to receive personal care temporarily, such as after surgery?
