Social Services

Social work services are a vital component of our home care program. Our goal is to improve or maintain the social, emotional, functional and physical health status of each patient while enhancing the coping skills of the family and other caregivers.

We provide accredited masters level social workers who assist clients and their families in adapting and planning the home environment.

Other components of the social work’s role may include but are not limited to:

• Liaison with other members of the health care team
• Advocacy with community agencies
• Information and referral to programs such as Meals on Wheels and Library for the Blind
• Counseling and crisis intervention, and application for financial assistance
• Assistance with longer term care planning and placement counseling
