We provide private duty care services that allow individuals to remain living in the comfort of their own home while receiving the support and care they need to thrive. Our qualified staff offers a full spectrum of professional home healthcare assistance.

You may call us at 866-354-8333 or email us to set up an appointment to discuss your needs. We can talk with you on the phone, in our office, at the hospital or your home – whichever is most convenient for you. In most cases, our Administrator will evaluate your needs initially and explain how we can best serve you. Once you decide to move forward with our services, the Administrator  will develop a customized care plan to meet the individualized daily needs of the client. This includes reviewing medical history and physician orders. At this time the Admin will also have you sign authorization forms to initiate care.

Insurance policies vary so much that we cannot say for certain which companies will cover our services. However, most Long Term Care policies do cover our services. Traditional health insurance policies are less predictable. However, we are happy to assist you in navigating through the insurance process to determine exactly what benefits you may be able to access.

Medicare and Medicaid do not typically cover the type of services we provide; therefore we are not Medicare or Medicaid providers. If you have Medicare or Medicaid and they do cover home healthcare services, it may be financially advantageous for you to select one of their authorized providers. Should you desire additional care above and beyond what Medicare or Medicaid is covering and/or it prevents or delays being admitted to the hospital or an extended care facility, private duty home healthcare may be able to assist you by having a nurse care for you in your home. We are pleased to work in conjunction with any current home healthcare/hospice providers or personal physicians to ensure all your needs are met.
