Mercy Home Health Rogers, AR

Anita

We're using Mercy Home Health Rogers. It's prescribed by the physician, so it depends on what their needs are. They provide anywhere from nursing care to nursing assistants, to occupational therapy, and physical therapy. It just depends on what the needs are. It's not a program that you can purchase; it's a prescription. It's prescribed by the physicians, so it only lasts as long as they meet the requirements. The billing goes through Medicare or through your insurance. Then they have a nurse that comes out every 14 visits (I think). A nurse comes out to assess what the needs are to go over the medications. Then a social worker comes out to assess the home and what their needs are. So it's constantly being supervised and it's collaborative. It's collaborated with their physician.
