“An individual may receive a single type of home care service or a combination of services, depending on the complexity of their needs and what’s prescribed by their provider,” says Theresa Schultz, Director of Home Health at Touchette Regional Hospital.
Services available:
Skilled Nursing isprovided directly at the patient's home and may not be performed safely and effectively by the patient or their families.
Social Services evaluate the social and emotional factors that impact a patient’s recovery from an illness or disability and provide counseling as needed to the patient and family. They also help patients and their family members identify available community resources with the goal of keeping the patient in their own home as long as possible.
Physical Therapy provides rehabilitative services aimed at restoring mobility and strength in patients who are limited by physical injuries or illness.
Occupational Therapy provides rehabilitative services to maximize the patient’s level of independence and functioning in activities of daily living.
Speech Therapy provides rehabilitative services to develop and restore the speech of individuals with communication disorders. Therapy may also help retrain patients to properly breathe, swallow, and regain oral muscle control.
Southern Illinois Home Care prides itself in providing home healthcare that focuses on the aspects of healing and providing patients with loving and quality care in the comfort of their own homes.
