Most people – at one time or another – will face the challenge of finding a way to care for someone who can’t care for themselves.  Maybe it’s an aging parent, who develops health problems but lives in a city far away; perhaps it’s someone who suffers an injury and needs rehabilitation; or it’s someone you love who needs help living independently at home.   And more and more frequently, people are choosing home as the place they want to be when they need care.
 
But home care isn’t something that most of us know much about.  So where do we start?  How do we develop a better understanding of what is available and how do we find what best meets our needs?
 
Home care providers deliver a wide variety of health care and supportive services such as:

• skilled nursing including Registered Nurses (RN’s), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN’s) and Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVN’s)
• home health aides, certified nursing assistants and companions
• physical and occupational therapy
• home infusion therapy
