Social Workers Role in Home Care

 
Our goal is to help patients achieve and maintain their maximum level of independence and wellbeing. By providing the appropriate education and skilled services, patients are able to safely remain in their homes once home health is no longer required.

Social Worker’s Role in Home Care:
  • Plan for patients’ needs after discharge from hospital
  • Referrals to community resources such as:
  • Meals on Wheels
  • Lifeline
  • Community Based Alternatives (CBA)
  • Primary Home Care (PHC)
  • VA Benefits Aide and Attendant Programs
  • Coordinate of public transportation
  • Counsel, psychological support, and coping techniques for patients and families
  • Plan for long term care
  • Evaluate social and economic needs (report living conditions to providers)
  • Assistance with advanced directives

Social Workers are available in conjunction with medical necessity services such as physical therapy and or nursing not as a stand alone service.
