We all know that when you are recovering from an illness, there really is no place you would rather be than home. Simply put, home healthcare is care delivered by our team of professionals in your home or place of residence. Simply being in comfortable, familiar surroundings has proven to promote faster healing and recovery.
When a family member, loved one, or friend is struggling with a disability, dealing with a chronic or terminal illness, or recovering from a recent hospital stay, our team of professionals has the answer.
Technological advances have allowed home-delivered health care to grow far beyond basic professional nursing and home care aid services. Our staff of professionals can now deliver state-of-the-art medical care to patients right where they live, and today's patients can receive everything from chemotherapy to basic assistance with the activities of daily living.
Caring for the sick, elderly, and dying in their homes truly is a privilege for us. You become a part of our family here at Smoky Mountain Home Health and Hospice.
That's why we understand that you need answers to many frequently asked questions, like:
- What services are offered and for how long?
- Have you not been making more frequent phone calls to your doctor?
- Who pays for home care and hospice services?
- Do you provide care for life-limiting illnesses?
