You must have a recent change in your medical condition or medication changes. 3. You must be home-bound which means it is difficult for you to leave your home. How Do I Get Home Health Services? If you are a patient in the hospital or a nursing home, the social services director who helps you with discharge planning may refer you to the home health agency, with your physician's approval. If you are at home and in need of home health services, you, a friend, a relative or neighbor can call the McCune-Brooks Home Health Service to request home care or you can call your physician. An evaluation will be done by the home health department and they will contact your physician to determine if the individual is indeed in need of care. |
