Home Health
Dominican Hospital’s Home Health program will help you and your family manage your health care needs after you are discharged from the hospital or skilled nursing or rehabilitation facility. In some cases, we may be able to treat you at home instead of your being in the hospital.
Dominican Home Health is state-licensed, Medicare-certified, and JCAHO-accredited so you can be assured of receiving the highest quality care.
Am I Eligible For Home Care?
Most insurance plans cover home care services, but may have different requirements. Our staff will contact your insurance plan to verify eligibility. All admissions to Dominican’s home care program require a doctor’s order. Home care may prevent the need for hospitalization and therefore prior hospitalization is not required.
