In-Home Medical Social Services

Assistance with Counseling, Healthcare Coordination, & Facility Transition

It can be difficult for some to cope with the emotional and financial complexities that are a result of the modern healthcare system. Dealing with chronic illness or the loss of loved ones can cause even the strongest of us to suffer symptoms of depression, anxiety, or loneliness, and A Care Connection wants to ensure that we provide clients with more than just quality physical care.

We want them to have an improved quality of life that comes from having someone in their corner. And even better, we don’t want to make it difficult for anyone, which is why we offer our services in the comfort of the home; if it’s hard for clients to travel, we come to you.

FAQs

Home Health Agency Medical Social Services
What is a medical social worker?
Medical Social Workers can facilitate long term planning to promote independence and provide opportunities to take advantage of a variety of community resources. As an advocate for the patient, medical social workers communicate the patient’s specific needs to their healthcare team. They can keep them informed of any unique circumstances that may affect the patient’s care. Healthcare teams, medical social workers, patients, and families can work together to navigate and overcome hurdles to create the best possible outcome.
Is there a difference between "home care" and "home health care"?

The term “home care” refers to any type of care (medical or non-medical) that is provided for the client in their home. While home care can be used to describe both medical and non-medical care, typically “home care” should be seen as non-medical care such as companionship/homemaking services and personal care services, while “home healthcare” refers specifically to skilled nursing care and other care such as speech, physical or occupational therapy.

“The referred caregiver through A Care Connection comes in three times a week for four hours a day. She comes to help Mom with breakfast and lunch, with activities, and for companionship. She’s very nice, my mother loves her, and they get along very well.  Mom is thrilled to be able to stay at home!”

“We hired A Care Connection for our mother, and it’s been very good. They help with changing her diaper, getting her up in the morning, and feeding her. They’re very lenient about scheduling. The owner came into the house, and I like him very much.”
