A BETTER WAY TO CARE MEANS IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE.
At Encompass Home Health, our goal is to ensure that patients understand their disease process to promote safety and proper disease management at home. Our multi-disciplined Specialty Programs include:
Orthopedics
Our Orthopedic Program delivers protocol-driven, physician-specific rehabilitation to orthopedic surgical patients. We admit patients as soon as possible after hospital/facility discharge and will provide services daily if needed. Our education can begin pre-operatively so patients know what to expect throughout recovery.
Balance & Fall Prevention
85% of falls occur at home and 44% are due to environmental hazards. Our program will utilize a multi-factorial fall risk assessment to identify the risk for falls, then develop an individualized plan to significantly reduce fall risk. We incorporate evidence-based practices along with an outcome report for superior results.
Cardiopulmonary
Our Cardiopulmonary Programs, including CHF, COPD, Hypertension and Heart and Vascular, utilize standards of practice which have been incorporated into our clinical pathways and education booklets. We focus on patient education, self-management, and compliance, resulting in exceptional outcomes and reducing patient needs for urgent/emergent care.
Diabetes
Patients and families learn the basic survival skills and self-management techniques necessary to control diabetes and the acute and chronic complications that may occur. Our well-trained clinicians provide education and an individualized treatment plan for compliance and disease management.
Community Care
Through the Community Care Program we are able to touch the lives of patients residing in retirement communities such as assisted and independent living, and residential care communities. We focus on a preventative approach to care through structured communication and a consistent care team to allow our patients to age in place.
