Wellness Support and Specialty Programs
Sometimes, it’s tough to get to the doctor’s office to get support and ask questions — whether about new medications, the use of assistive devices, or other concerns. A visit from a home health provider is a wellness benefit you are entitled to through insurance — there is no hospitalization required.
The types of supports we can provide include:
- Home safety evaluations
- Fall prevention strategies
- Medication education and management
- Use of adaptive equipment and patient transfers
- Nutrition education
- Medical social work
- Low-vision strategies
- Telehealth technology
Thank you so very much for all your excellent care for my patient! You went above and beyond the call of duty in every way. – A Primary Care Physician
Eligibility and Payment
Hospitalization is not required — but a physician’s referral is. Services are based on your individual needs and the plan of care is developed in close consultation with your primary care physician. Hebrew SeniorLife Home Health works with all Massachusetts hospitals and physician groups.
In addition to Medicare, we take many insurance plans.
