What should I expect from my home health care?

Evergreen Home Health care is a wide range of health care services that can be given in your home for an illness or injury.

Doctor’s orders are needed to start care. Once your doctor refers you for home health services, the home health agency will schedule an appointment and come to your home to talk to you about your needs and ask you some questions about your health.
The home health agency staff will also talk to your doctor about your care and keep your doctor updated about your progress.
It’s important that home health staff see you as often as the doctor ordered.
Examples of what the home health staff should do include:

Check what you’re eating and drinking.
Check your blood pressure, temperature, heart rate, and breathing.
Check that you’re taking your prescription and other drugs and any treatments correctly.
Ask if you’re having pain.
Check your safety in the home.
Teach you about your care so you can take care of yourself.
Coordinate your care. This means they must communicate regularly with you, your doctor, and anyone else who gives you care.
