Staff

Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs)

RNs and LPNs provide skilled services that cannot be performed safely and effectively by non-professional personnel. Some of these services include injections and intravenous therapy, wound care, education on disease treatment and prevention, and patient assessments. RNs may also provide case management services. RNs have received two or more years of specialized education and are licensed to practice by the state. LPNs have one year of specialized training and are licensed to work under the supervision of registered nurses.

Physical Therapists (PTs)

PTs work to restore the mobility and strength of patients who are limited or disabled by physical injuries through the use of exercise, massage, and other methods. PTs often alleviate pain and restore injured muscles with specialized equipment. They also teach patients and caregivers special techniques for walking and transfer.
Speech Language Pathologists
Work to develop and restore the speech of individuals with communication disorders; usually these disorders are the result of traumas such as surgery or stroke. Speech therapists also help retrain patients in breathing, swallowing, and muscle control.

Occupational Therapists (OTs)

OTs help individuals who have physical, developmental, social, or emotional problems that prevent them from performing the general activities of daily living (ADLs). OTs instruct patients on using specialized rehabilitation techniques and equipment to improve their function in tasks such as eating, bathing, dressing, and basic household routines.

CNAs/Home Health Aides

Assist patients with ADLs such as getting in and out of bed, walking, bathing, toileting, and dressing. Some aides have received special training and are qualified to provide more complex services under the supervision of a nursing professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are home health services?

Home health care provides medical treatment for an illness or injury. The goal is to help you recover, regain your independence and become as self-sufficient as possible.

Who is eligible for home health care?

There are several requirements for receiving home health care. You must have a doctor prescribe home health care. You must need either skilled nursing care on an intermittent basis or therapy services which include physical, occupational or speech. You must be restricted in your ability to leave home otherwise known as “homebound”. Your homebound status must be certified by a physician. This means that you require the help or supervision of another person, or you use a supportive device such as a cane or walker. You can leave the home as often as you need for medical treatment. You are allowed brief and infrequent absences from the home for some non-medical reasons such as an occasional trip to the barber/beauty shop or a walk around the block.

Will my insurance cover it?

Medicare, medical assistance and most health insurances cover skilled home health care, however each policy is different. Some may require preauthorization of services or co pays or limit the number of home visits. Nearly all insurances require that you meet homebound criteria to be eligible for home health care.

Does my doctor have to order home health care?

Yes, physician orders are required for skilled home care: nurses, therapists, social worker, or home health aide.

How often will you come to my home?

The frequency of visits will depend on patient needs and the physician orders. A plan of care is written and discussed with the patient on admission.

How soon will the services start?

Services usually start within 24 hours of Traditional Home Health and Hospice’s receipt of the physician referral unless the doctor has ordered a specific date for services to begin.

How do I get in touch with you?

We can be reached 24 hours a day 7 days a week at (570) 207-9286.

My doctor is ordering home health care for me; can I request Traditional Home Health and Hospice by name?
