HomeHealth FAQs

To help you make the most informed choice, here are the nine most important questions to ask before choosing a home health care provider:

You want a home care professional who has experience managing your specific condition or health care needs. ChristianaCare HomeHealth health care professionals provide a variety of nursing care for all ages, including help with daily tasks, pediatric and special needs care, Alzheimer’s and dementia care, physical, occupational and speech therapy, pain management and infusion therapy. Because we are skilled in providing medical care, you can be assured you will receive the right care even when your needs change.

The best in-home care is supported by the most appropriate and effective technologies available. ChristianaCare HomeHealth health care professionals use state-of-the-art technology, including digital photography to assess wound management, and electronic patient records and telehealth for remote cardiac and respiratory monitoring. These tools help us provide the very best professional care in your home.

Anyone can claim they are experienced in professional home care. ChristianaCare HomeHealth is fully accredited by the Joint Commission’s Home Care Accreditation Program, the gold standard of excellence in quality and safety. Plus, we are fully certified by Medicare and licensed by the state of Delaware. This means you can be sure you or your loved one will receive the highest quality of care.

Long-standing experience in the community is an important qualification. ChristianaCare HomeHealth has been serving the people of Delaware since 1922. As a part of ChristianaCare, you can trust us to provide the skilled care that makes a difference.

Out-of-home support is an important part of care giving. ChristianaCare HomeHealth offers adult day care for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia at our Evergreen Center. Plus, we support caregivers with regularly scheduled support group and education events.

Quality patient-centered care comes from oversight that ensures the highest standards of care are met for every patient and every patient’s unique needs. ChristianaCare HomeHealth has a vigorous quality-control program meeting Joint Commission standards and an active performance-improvement committee that identifies goals and areas of focus and reports to the HomeHealth board. In fact, our care is often cited as best practice and used as an example to other care agencies and organizations. That means you can count on high-quality care from each of our health care professionals.

Working together with your physician is an important part of care in the home. ChristianaCare HomeHealth health care professionals partner with your physician at the start of your care and any time there are changes in your condition or treatment. We also talk to your physician to change the plan of care when necessary. By working as a team, we make sure your exact health care needs will be met.

Being prepared takes on special meaning when you have a home care professional meeting your needs. You want to be sure your care giver can effectively respond to any emergency. ChristianaCare HomeHealth professionals are trained and skilled in meeting the needs of their patients – even unexpected problems. But we take that care one step further by teaching our patients and their families what to do in the event of an emergency, and we develop an emergency plan with them. Members of our clinical staff are also on-call for phone advice at all times. Because we are thoroughly prepared, you can have peace of mind about the care we provide.

You never know when you may need extra help or support. Nights. Weekends. Holidays. ChristianaCare HomeHealth is standing by to serve you. Call us any time, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We’re here whenever you need us.
