HOME HEALTH SERVICES
"Home health" covers a variety of services provided in the home. Medicare will pay for some "non-custodial" care and services if the patient is homebound and under the supervision of a doctor. The benefit covers skilled medical care delivered in the home by an approved Medicare agency for treatment of an illness or injury.
Physical and occupational therapists can help patients recover muscle strength and coordination, alleviate chronic pain and re-learn everyday activities after an illness or injury. Speech therapists can help victims of brain trauma to speak and eat normally.
AseraCare is a leading provider of hospice and home health services, with 65 hospice locations and 17 home health locations in 19 states, and more than 2,300 employees.

AseraCare Hospice strives to alleviate physical discomfort while providing emotional, spiritual and bereavement support to the terminally ill patient and their family.
