About Caretenders
Caretenders has served Lexington since 1983 and is Medicare certified. The agency is structured as a proprietary provider and offers six core services: skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology, medical social services, and home health aide care.

What to expect
When your parent's doctor orders home health care, the agency will schedule an initial assessment visit to evaluate medical needs and determine which services apply. A nurse will meet with your parent at home, review medical history, and develop a care plan. Services typically begin within several days. You'll work with a care coordinator who schedules visits and answers questions. The agency will request insurance information and medical documentation. As your parent's condition changes, the care plan adjusts accordingly.
