A medical social worker is a professional who helps you and your family cope with illness and find the support you need. Visits happen at home, as part of home health care. We serve the Chicago area, including DuPage, Cook, Lake, Kane, McHenry and Will counties.
Common reasons include feeling overwhelmed by an illness, not knowing what help is out there, worry about safety at home, and exhausted family caregivers. These are examples, not a complete list.
A medical social worker may be a fit if you are getting home health care and an illness is putting stress on you or your family. Tap anything below that sounds like you or someone you love.
Medicare may cover home health care when eligibility requirements are met, including a doctor’s or provider’s plan of care, a need for skilled care, and homebound status. A social worker is usually added to a plan that already includes skilled nursing or therapy.
Call us and we will talk it through, with no obligation. We will tell you if home health is a fit.
