United Home Health has been serving the Laredo community since 2006 as a Medicare-certified home health agency. They offer five essential services: skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology, and medical social services. This means your parent's care team can include nurses, therapists, and social workers, depending on what their doctor prescribes. Being Medicare-certified means the agency meets federal standards for safety and quality of care.
What to expect
After your parent's doctor orders home health care, United Home Health will schedule an initial assessment visit. A clinician will evaluate your parent's needs in your home and work with you to create a care plan. Visits are scheduled based on the plan—this might be a few times per week or daily, depending on your parent's condition. You'll work with the same team of professionals over time, and the agency will coordinate with your parent's doctor about progress. Most care happens in your parent's home, which often helps people feel more comfortable and recover better.
