Home Health Care:
For selected patients, the home offers a comfortable, healing environment for recovery from illnesses. Lincoln Medical Home Health and Hospice is a not for profit agency which provides patients with cost-effective healthcare alternatives to hospitalization. Home Health Care is provided to home-bound patients on an intermittent basis and requires a physician’s order. Personalized care is offered, allowing the patient’s family to retain their identity and independence through active participation in the plan of care. Home Health Care services include Skilled Nursing Care, Personal Care provided by a Home Health Aide, Physical Therapy, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Medical Social Services.

Hospice Care:
Patients with a terminal illness and a prognosis of six months or less may qualify for Hospice care. The patient cannot be seeking aggressive or curative treatment. Hospice care is palliative, with a focus on pain control and quality of life, and seeks to treat not only the patient, but their loved ones as well. In addition to routine home care, respite services may be provided in a facility away from home for up to five days to give the family or caregivers a brief period of relief. “The focus of hospice relies on the belief that each of us has the right to die pain-free and with dignity, and that our loved ones will receive the necessary support to allow us to do so.” (National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization)

Home Health Care and Hospice services are covered by most private insurance companies as well as Medicare and TennCare. The agency will gladly offer assistance in determining coverage. Lincoln Medical Home Health and Hospice is Medicare Certified and accredited by the Joint Commission.
