What to expect

After your parent is referred by a doctor, an assessment nurse will visit to understand their medical needs and create a personalized care plan. Caregivers will visit on a schedule the doctor prescribes. They'll perform medical care (if skilled nursing is included), help with exercises or daily activities, and coordinate with your parent's doctor. You'll receive updates on progress and can contact the agency with questions. Most home health episodes last weeks to a few months, with the goal of helping your parent regain independence or stabilize their condition at home.

Frequently asked questions

What services can Bayada provide?

They offer skilled nursing (wound care, medication management), physical therapy, occupational therapy (activities of daily living), speech therapy, medical social services (care coordination), and home health aides. Most people use a combination based on their parent's specific medical needs.

Are they Medicare certified?

Yes. This means they meet federal standards and can provide Medicare-covered home health care if your parent qualifies. Your parent's doctor determines eligibility and prescribes the care.

How is billing handled?

If your parent qualifies for Medicare home health, there is typically no cost to your parent. Medicare covers eligible services directly. Your parent's secondary insurance or out-of-pocket costs depend on their specific plan.

How often would someone visit?

This depends on your parent's doctor's orders. Visits might be 2–3 times weekly for recovery from an event like surgery, or daily for more intensive needs. The care plan is reviewed regularly and adjusted as your parent improves.
