Home care services are rapidly evolving into distinctly different categories. Hospice care is different from Elder Care. I/DD care is completely different from Elder and Hospice care. The assumption that any baby sitter will do in all if these settings must stop. How are we expected as providers to account for these differences in intent when caring for individuals? Person Centered Care is the answer. We must redefine our roles as providers. We must take into account the different goals and desires of the people we serve. The idea that by being compliant with all of the regulations surrounding the delivery of services will equate to great care is ridiculous. Providers must re focus their attention to providing care and manage regulations as a by product not the be all end all that ensures good care. It’s time for a paradigm shift in the delivery of Care. Cura OS understands these dynamics and is ready to make providers the best they can be. #inclusion #hcbs #arc

Home care is deeply personal. The most obvious reason is because you’re letting someone new into your home to help organize your life and assist with functions like showering and mobility. But it’s more than that. No two people are the same, which means no two home care plans are the same. It’s important to find an agency you can trust that will give you the best care possible. --At Wellspring Home Health Center, you're cared for like family.
