Patient Services
DEDICATED TO YOUR HEALTH
We Take Your Health Seriously.
Skilled Nursing
Skilled nursing care is a high level of medical care, provided by Cornerstone Home Health, that must be provided by trained individuals. This type of care is performed by registered nurses (RNs) and Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN). Services are typically necessary over the short term for rehabilitation of an illness or injury, or over the long term for patients who need care on a frequent or around-the-clock basis due to a chronic medical condition. Skilled nursing needs include, but are not limited to, wound care, intravenous (IV) therapy, injections rehabilitation, tube feedings, rapidly changing health status, and monitoring of vital signs and medical equipment.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapists contracted or employed through Cornerstone are responsible for providing physical therapy services in accordance with your physician’s orders and with our policies. We can provide occupational, physical, and speech therapy services.
Dementia and Alzheimers Care
Individuals living with Alzheimer’s or Dementia often need high-level care to maintain and preserve their well-being and their safety. Family members typically care for loved ones that show signs of early and mid-stage Alzheimer’s or Dementia, but the effects of these conditions can become overwhelming in the later stages. This is the when professional Alzheimer’s or Dementia care is often required.
Medication Management
Service designed to help manage medications so they are taken on time, all the time.
Certified Home Health Aides
The home health aide is a paraprofessional member of our home care team who works under the supervision of a Registered Nurse or a Therapist and performs various care services as necessary to meet the patient’s needs. The home health aide is responsible for observing patients, reporting these observations and documenting observations and any treatments or care performed. Our home health aides are assigned in a manner which promotes the quality, continuity and safety of our patients’ care.
Medical Social Work
Medical Social Workers are primarily responsible for identifying the social needs of patients and providing services that meet these needs. They will help patients and their families cope with the emotional and social responses to illness and treatment. They educate patients and their families on available entitlements, community resources, and health insurance coverage. They may also provide individual counseling to their patients.
