About Specialized Home Care
Specialized Home Care is a Medicare-certified home health agency serving Wichita, KS and has been Medicare certified since 2017. The agency is a nonprofit organization.
Medicare rates the quality of patient care at Specialized Home Care 4.5 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. Families who need ongoing help with daily living, such as bathing, meals and companionship, should also compare non-medical home care agencies nearby.
