Home Care Aides

Add years to your life and life to your years

Caregivers at Kossuth Regional Health Center provide assistance to any person with physical or mental limitations to recover at home. The goal of home care is to promote recovery, independence and general well being of the patient.

Home care can add years to your life and life to your years at a minimal expense for the patient. Care provided in the home is typically less expensive than other forms of long-term or short-term care, including hospital care or nursing homes. There are a variety of funding sources available to cover this cost, such as Medicare (when skilled care is needed), Medicaid and some private insurances, as well as funding through our a local public health grant and Elderbridge funding. Referrals can be made by a friend, family member, or a physician.
