What to expect
You can reach them at (337) 235-9741 to discuss your parent's needs. A nurse or care coordinator will assess what services would help—whether that's nursing care, therapy, or aide support. Since they're Medicare certified, your parent's doctor would need to order home health services, and Medicare will cover what's medically necessary. A care team will visit your parent's home on a schedule that works with the treatment plan.
