What exactly is a Home Health Agency?

A Home Health Agency, often abbreviated to HHA, is a specialized institution that provides a range of home care services. These services span from skilled nursing and home care assistance to various therapies such as occupational, physical, and speech therapies. Additionally, they also offer medical social services.

Choosing to engage a home health agency means that the agency takes on the responsibility of recruiting and overseeing the professionals who will be providing care in your home. This includes assuming total accountability for the quality of care provided. Furthermore, all the care providers are employees of the agency which ensures that the agency handles all the necessary employee taxes and benefits. The goal of these agencies is to provide comprehensive, at-home care for those who need it.

 

What exactly is a "needs assessment"?

If a doctor concludes that homecare is necessary, a “needs assessment” is typically performed by your home health agency. This comprehensive analysis of your circumstances verifies the necessity for the prescribed services and identifies any additional services that may be beneficial. Usually, this assessment is carried out by a registered nurse, either in a hospital setting or at your home. Afterward, the agency customizes a homecare strategy and discusses it with you based on your specific requirements. Before finalizing this strategy, the agency communicates their findings and the proposed plan to your doctor for approval. This plan will detail crucial elements such as the objectives of the treatment, the precise services, and the degree of care to be provided, as well as any necessary medical equipment and supplies.
