Skilled Nursing

Sometimes, you need medical care that is more than the basic help. Through skilled nursing at home, we provide you with professional care from licensed nurses – Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) – just where you live. These nurses are experts in medical needs that require a trained healthcare professional.

Here’s what we cover:

• Wound care (from complex dressings to wound vacs)
• Medication management (including IV therapy and injections)
• Disease management (diabetes, heart failure, COPD, and more)
• Post-surgical care
• Education for both patients and caregivers

It’s all about getting the right care at the right time, where you are most comfortable.

For Wound Care, IVs, and more, Skilled Nursing at home is the answer. Reach out to MedStar.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy (OT) at home is like a life coach for your daily tasks. It is our best attempt to help you live independently in the place you feel the most at ease – home. We take a personalized approach, looking at the physical, mental, and emotional factors that affect your daily activities. Our Home-based OT will improve your ability to handle daily tasks on your own.

• ADLs – Let us make the basic tasks like bathing, eating, and getting to the bathroom easier.
• IADLs – Cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, managing money – all the things that keep your home running will be taken care of.
• We recommend changes to your home to make it safer.
• We work on improving your memory and focus.
• We help you learn how to prevent falls and safely move around your home, including getting in and out of chairs, etc.
• We help build your confidence to do more for yourself at home.

If you wish to take back control of your own routine and begin doing the things you love – our OT will help get you there. It is all about being proactive.

Home Health Aides

Home Health Aides (HHAs) are your helping hands.

They are the trained individuals who take up the charge to provide you with essential support.  Our HHAs help you with daily tasks so that you can keep your independence, dignity, and comfort intact. They will work under a nurse’s guidance to offer care, help around the house, and friendly companionship, too.

What can a Home Health Aide do for you?

• Our HHAs will help you bathe, get dressed, and move around – for instance, get in and out of bed or a chair.
• You get assisted with light housekeeping, such as dusting, laundry, etc. You can also get support in preparing meals, buying groceries, and even running errands.
• We offer emotional support, too, through, let’s say, reading, games, walks, etc. We will also accompany you to appointments.
• We observe and report any changes in our client’s condition, take vital signs, and document the care provided.

Home health aides are here to make your life easier in whichever way possible.
