PurposeCare Services
When your loved one needs more than a helping hand, PurposeCare's home health team brings skilled, regulated care directly to their home.
Overview
Home health care is clinical care provided in the comfort of a patient’s home. It’s different from home care, which focuses on personal care and daily living support.
Home health care involves licensed medical professionals skilled nurses, therapists, and social workers who deliver the kind of care that would otherwise require a doctor’s visit or hospital stay.
Services are often prescribed by a physician and coordinated under the supervision of a registered nurse.
That means your loved one gets consistent, professional oversight while staying in the place they know best.
Not sure if your loved one needs home care or home health care?
What's Included
Licensed nurses provide ongoing medical care: medication management, health monitoring, wound treatment, and direct communication with your loved one's physician.
Our therapists help patients rebuild strength, restore function, and regain independence, whether recovering from surgery, a stroke, or a progressive condition.
A medical social worker helps patients and families manage the emotional, social, and logistical challenges that come with illness or injury, connecting them to resources and coordinating care transitions.
Skilled wound care delivered at home, including assessment, treatment, and monitoring to support proper healing and prevent complications.
Our team provides hands-on care and practical education for patients adjusting to life with an ostomy, so they feel confident and supported at every stage.
Intravenous medications and hydration therapy administered safely at home by a licensed nurse, eliminating unnecessary hospital or infusion center visits.
Who It's For
Home health care works best for patients who need clinical oversight but want to heal or manage their condition at home. It’s a fit for:
01
Discharge doesn’t mean you’re fully recovered. Home health care bridges the gap between leaving the hospital and getting back to full strength.
02
For patients living with diabetes, heart disease, COPD, or other ongoing conditions, regular skilled nursing visits help keep health stable and catch changes early.
03
When a loved one needs wound care, medication management, or therapy, home health care steps in without uprooting their routine.
02
For patients living with diabetes, heart disease, COPD, or other ongoing conditions, regular skilled nursing visits help keep health stable and catch changes early.
04
Many people prefer to heal and age safely at home, rather than in a facility. PurposeCare makes that possible with qualified professionals who come to them.
Process
Contact PurposeCare directly or ask your physician, hospital discharge planner, or care team to make a referral.
A member of our team will assess your loved one’s needs, medical history, and home environment to understand the full picture.
We build a care plan around your loved one’s specific needs, outlining services, visit schedules, and goals in coordination with their care team.
A qualified PurposeCare professional starts visits on a scheduled basis, with ongoing communication to the family and supervising nurse.
