Amicare Home Healthcare
Home
is more than a place to stay. It is a favorite chair, a beloved
pet, a treasured memory, someone you love. But sometimes age, illness,
a chronic condition or a disability can make living at home quite
difficult. Mercy Health Partners Amicare Homecare can offer
you the help you or someone you love needs to remain in the comfort
of home.
Care Following a Hospital Stay...
You or someone you love may need care following a stay at the hospital.
You may need to learn about new medications. You may need help with
personal care and everyday activities during the first weeks following
hospitalization. Perhaps you need equipment, like a hospital bed,
wheelchair, walker, or a personal emergency communication device
to make life at home comfortable and safe.
Amicares professional caregivers work with your doctor to
give you the care you need in the comfort of your home.
When Youre Overwhelmed by Illness...
You or someone you love may have to deal with an ongoing illness
or condition. Diabetes, asthma, emphysema, hypertension, and cardiac
disease are examples of chronic illnesses that may be a part of
your life.
Fortunately, many people with chronic illnesses can carry on a
fairly normal life with care at home. A person with respiratory
illnesses can remain comfortably at home with the help of Amicares
home oxygen programs.
Caring for a Newborn...
Sometimes, newborn babies need extra support at home in the first
few weeks of life. In the past, a baby who was jaundiced might have
had to stay in the hospital a few more days. Now, newborn infants
can receive light treatments for jaundice at home.
Amicare Homecare provides the care and equipment (including home
apnea monitors) that your babys doctor may order for your
babys first weeks at home. Amicare also works with some insurance
plans that cover a home nursing visit for your baby when you go
home from the hospital within a short period of time.
Making Home a Safer, More Comfortable Place...
A piece of home medical equipment can make home a safer, more comfortable
place. Bathroom safety equipment can make a big difference in someones
life. A hospital bed placed in a convenient space may make it possible
for someone who must stay in bed to enjoy the activities of home
life.
Amicare Homecare supplies a full range of home medical equipment
that helps make living at home possible when ordered by your doctor.
Amicare Helps You Get the Home Care Solutions You Need...
Amicare Homecare helps you find solutions for your home care problems.
Amicares staff of nurses, therapists, medical social workers,
and home health aides work as a team to make sure that you receive
the care you need. Amicare works with you and your doctor as partners
in your care at home.
Most home medical equipment and many home care services are covered,
in full or in part, by Medicare, Medicaid, Blue Cross and other
insurance plans. Amicare helps you determine which services and
equipment are covered by your insurance, and tailors non-covered
home care services to meet your needs and fit your budget. Services
are also available at competitive, reasonable rates, should you
choose to pay privately for your care.
If you need help at home, ask your doctor about home care, or call
