About Comprehensive Medical Home Care
Comprehensive Medical Home Care is a Medicare-certified home health agency serving Dupont, PA and has been Medicare certified since 1995. Services offered in the home include skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, medical social services and home health aide visits. The agency is privately owned.
Medicare rates the quality of patient care at Comprehensive Medical Home Care 2.5 out of 5 stars, based on how quickly care starts, how often patients improve at walking, bathing and managing medications, and how often they are readmitted to the hospital.
Home health is short-term, doctor-ordered clinical care at home, typically after a hospital stay or during recovery, and Medicare covers it in full when the patient qualifies.
