Kindred at Home–LakeLand

Kindred at Home–LakeLand is not a sitting service but instead it is highly skilled care that comes to you at home. There are a lot of things about home healthcare that you may not realize if you’re looking into it for the first time. First of all, it’s one of the most underutilized and valuable Medicare benefits out there. But it’s also one of the most misunderstood. Our mission is to help our patients live more independently with a higher quality of life. We work with your physician to carry out their orders and serve as their eyes and ears. Most importantly, we deliver compassionate care from the heart where you want to be cared for most – right in the comfort of home. If you are recovering from illness, injury or surgery, our highly skilled medical team of caregivers will create a safe, supportive, and professional environment in your home. We pledge to maintain the highest quality standards in our delivery of home health care. Our approach to patient care is based on the belief that each patient is a unique individual with unique needs. Our committed staff coordinates with your physician, family, caregivers, and community services. We are dedicated to your full recovery and return to a fulfilling life with services that include:

• Skilled nurses provide a variety of services including disease management, post-surgical care, and wound care. Our experienced case managers will coordinate and guide each patient’s overall plan of care.
• Our licensed physical therapists have a depth of experience in helping patients recover from fall injuries, joint replacement surgeries, and stroke related disabilities. Physical therapy services assist the patient in learning how to restore function by training on gait, use of cane, walker, wheelchair, artificial limb, energy conservation, and return to work status.
• Occupational therapy services assist the patient in learning how to perform daily living skills such as bathing, grooming, dressing, and toileting to help them return to their prior level of independence and mobility. We also conduct a fall risk assessment at the patient’s home and make recommendations to improve patient safety.
• Speech therapy services assist the patient in restoring language and communication skills to improve quality of life.
• Medical social workers consult with the patient regarding financial, social, and/or transportation problems and help establish long term plans, crisis intervention, and counseling.
• In conjunction with skilled nursing services and rehabilitation services, Certified Home Health Aides provide assistance with bathing, dressing, light meal preparation, and minimal household tasks on a temporary basis.
