What is Home Health Care?

The term “home health care” can be confusing because it is not just one kind of care. Skilled Home Health Care and Private Home Health Care are two distinct types of home health services, with significant differences. Many people, unaware of the differences, use the terms interchangeably, but the distinction is that Skilled Home Health Care is medical care provided by licensed medical professionals while Private Home Health Care refers to assistance with the activities of daily life by home health aides.

There is a wealth of home health care information available, but it can be overwhelming, so it is essential to understand the kind of services that are best for you. We can help. Often, a combination of Skilled Home Health and Private Home Health Care services are optimal. MorseLife’s preferred home health care services, both Skilled Home Health and Private Home Health Care, offer options to help recuperation from injury, recovery from illness, and care for chronic illness, as well as help with basic tasks at home.

Home Health Care?

Why Choose a Licensed Provider?

Horizontal Line used under headings.  Light blue

Licensed providers, like MorseLife, bear the obligation of screening, training, and supervision of caregivers. We also maintain appropriate procedures and documentation. This can protect clients from unforeseen issues with taxation and other potentially serious and costly liabilities.

An established, licensed provider, MorseLife assumes responsibility for our employees’ performance and integrity. And we adhere rigorously to accepted “best practices.” This includes helping our home health caregivers understand the unique needs of seniors, and ensuring that the proper levels of care are in place. It is our duty to insure that seniors receive care services at home in an atmosphere of trust, security, and comfort.

Unlike independent contractors, MorseLife caregivers enjoy the support of an experienced team. This helps them understand their work environments and respond effectively to client needs. Our home health supervisors steward our caregivers to ensure positive outcomes. At MorseLife, we are always connected to our in-home caregivers so that they, and our clients, enjoy mutually rewarding relationships.
