“From the beginning, this experience was pleasurable. Past experiences with home health services have not been, so we were a little nervous. But everyone, including your receptionist, was easy to work with. I’m glad you’re in this area if we need your services again. Please express our appreciation to everyone that assisted with my dad”.
“All of your staff were so kind and helpful. I cannot think how you could improve. The care I received was top of the line. Everyone was great. Thanks you so very much and God bless you.
Yadkin Valley Home Health uses the HomMed brand of telemonitoring equipment. These devices are Class II, FDA approved for your safety. The monitor itself is about the size of a clock radio. It is connected to your telephone line with a split jack, which maintains your current telephone service without interruption. The monitor comes equipped with a blood pressure cuff, a digital scale and a pulse oximeter. Other peripheral devices, such as a temperature probe and glucometers can be added. The device alerts you at the same time each day and walks you through, taking your own vital signs. These are sent via an 800 number to our office, where a nurse reviews and acts on them as necessary.
Yadkin Valley Home Health offers skilled services, such as nursing, aides and rehabilitation. These services must be ordered by a physician. Services are delivered in the comfort and security of your own home and are fully covered by Medicare and Medicaid, if you meet their criteria.
Lifeline is a personal response system. By simply wearing a necklace or bracelet that contains a small button, you can call for help instantly. Lifeline is an affordable safety system for anyone who lives alone.
Yes. Most major insurances cover skilled care and medical supplies. You can check with your insurer or call us and we can research it for you.
Traditional Medicare, as well as the Medicare managed care programs like Advantage and Partners, require that you be “homebound”. This means that in order to leave your home to receive services (for example, for outpatient physical therapy), it would be a taxing effort on you. Medicare feels that in-home services are only appropriate for people who cannot easily receive these same services in other settings like outpatient clinics.
