November is National Home Care & Hospice Month, and we are so thankful for Hale County Hospital – Home Health. Based in Greensboro, Hale County Hospital – Home Health provides care to home-bound individuals in Hale, Greene, Perry, and Marengo counties. Home health’s goals is to promote and facilitate a healthier quality of life for patients and their families, right in the comfort and familiarity of your own home. This program can support those who have difficulties with mobility, to help those who adjust to life back at home after a recent inpatient stay in the hospital, or who need more regular care. Some of the service home health provides include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, medication monitoring, wound care, diabetic teaching, and IV therapy.

Hospice is a form of health care that focuses on providing comfort and quality healthcare for individuals who are terminally ill or who are approaching the end of life. Hospice care is typically delivered by a multidisciplinary team, including doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers, who collaborate to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the patient while working to reduce pain. They will also assist the patient with medications, daily routines, and other assistance and support they may need. This compassionate approach aims to help individuals live as fully and comfortably as possible in the final stages of life.
