About Adventist Health Home Care Services
Adventist Health Home Care Services provides skilled home health care to individuals in The Dalles, Oregon and surrounding areas including Wasco, Sherman, Hood River, and Klickitat counties. The service is designed for patients with conditions or situations that make leaving their home difficult, allowing them to remain independent in their own homes while receiving personalized medical attention.
Through individualized care plans developed in conjunction with patients and their primary care physicians, Adventist Health delivers a range of services tailored to meet unique health needs. Care may include assistance with daily activities, medication administration, and management of chronic or life-limiting conditions. The team providing care is composed of experienced healthcare professionals who monitor patient progress and report back to primary care providers to ensure seamless continuity of care.
The service is suitable for elderly, disabled, and special needs individuals, as well as those incapacitated due to medical conditions. Visit schedules are determined based on each patient's specific needs and physician prescription.
