Home Health Care
The strength of community and family is very strong in Buffalo and WNY, and so are the bonds that we form with our homes. For many people their homes are where memories have been made and shared, and it difficult to leave the feelings of security and stability that your home provides when in need of medical care. Health Force understands these feelings and can provide you, or a loved one, with quality health care in the comfort and privacy of your home.
The scope of home health care is broad and encompasses a wide array of both health and supportive services delivered at home to people of all ages. Our nurses, aides, and companions can help seniors stay independent with assisting in household tasks and personal care. They can provide post-partum nursing visits for new mothers and newborns, and they can supervise the treatment of the chronically ill.
Who can receive home health care services?
- Anyone with a chronic illnesses
- Anyone who has recently had a stroke
- Anyone that is rehabilitating after a recent surgery
- A new mother that was discharged quickly following childbirth
