Home health care is medical care given at home. It covers things like wound care, medication management and physical therapy, all under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Our home care in Columbia<\/a> also includes non-medical help with bathing, meals, light housekeeping and companionship, and plenty of families use the two side by side.<\/p>\n

Our skilled program was created for clients who need medical services and would rather receive them at home. Our in-home skilled nursing services<\/a> are provided by Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses, so the person at your door is trained for the medical side of care.<\/p>\n

Families looking for skilled nursing care at home in Columbia, PA usually want to know what the nurses actually do. They give IV infusions at home, which can mean fewer trips to the hospital. They provide wound care matched to the kind of wound it is, cleaning, dressing and checking it regularly to help prevent infection. And they help with diabetes care, with blood sugar monitoring, medication management and support for the lifestyle changes that keep things steady.<\/p>\n

We believe in educating the people we care for, so our nurses teach, too. Patient education means you and your family learn how to manage medications, care for a wound or follow a special diet, and you can take part in the care between visits. Our nurses also support people living with other chronic conditions, from arthritis to Alzheimer's.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Our therapists bring physical, occupational and speech therapy into your home<\/a> for recovery after a knee or hip replacement, a stroke, a fall or another injury. Physical therapy rebuilds strength and mobility. Occupational therapy helps with everyday tasks like dressing, bathing and cooking. Speech therapy helps a person speak and express themselves with confidence again.<\/p>\n

Columbia's houses give therapy at home a real purpose. More than half of the homes in the borough were built in 1939 or earlier<\/a>, and houses that age often come with steep staircases, tight bathrooms and a step or two at every door. Getting around those safely is part of getting better.<\/p>\n

In-home physical therapy in Columbia, PA happens on the very stairs you climb every night and beside the tub you step into every morning. Your therapist fits the exercises, stretches and tips to your own rooms, and you save the time and energy a trip to a clinic would take.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
