Home Health Care Philosophy
There's no place like home. For many patients, that's just what the doctor may order for a speedy recovery. Home health care, provided by Abington Memorial Hospital Home Care, is a service for persons who are too sick or disabled to care for themselves, but well enough not to be admitted to a hospital or nursing home. Studies indicate that patients who stay at home, or return home to recover, may get better more quickly. Abington Memorial Hospital Home Care is widely recognized for the quality and scope of its service. Its goal is to preserve and improve each patient's life at home by emphasizing independence and self-involvement in the care process. Abington Memorial Hospital Home Care is certified by Medicare and is accredited by The Joint Commission.
Areas Served
The hospital's service area includes portions of Montgomery, Bucks and Philadelphia counties.
