What to expect

When you contact Freeman, a nurse or care coordinator will discuss your parent's health needs and what services might help. If your parent qualifies for Medicare-covered home health, Freeman will schedule an initial in-home assessment. A registered nurse will visit to evaluate your parent's condition, medical history, and home environment. Based on this assessment, Freeman will create a care plan that may include skilled nursing visits, physical therapy sessions, and home health aide support. The frequency and duration of visits depend on your parent's needs and what Medicare covers. You and your parent will be involved in planning the care, and Freeman's team will regularly assess progress and adjust the plan as needed.
