Home Health
Our goal at Active Home Health as a home health agency is to improve or maintain your current condition or level of function. We help you regain and maintain your independence, keeping you at optimal well-being. We accomplish this through observation and assessment, teaching and training, and even the administration of medications.
Observation and Assessment
Home Health is more than just therapy. When there is a reasonable potential for change or modification in a patient’s condition or treatment, we monitor these changes and prevent further complications.
Teaching and Training
We teach a patient, the patient’s family, or caregivers how to manage the treatment program appropriately for the patient’s functional loss, illness, or injury.
Administration of Medications
We safely and effectively administer medications when they require the skills of a licensed nurse and are reasonable and necessary for treating an illness or injury.
Home health care is designed for individuals who are homebound and require intermittent skilled medical services or therapy following an illness, injury, or chronic condition. Qualifying conditions often necessitate skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech therapy. Common examples include:
- Chronic Conditions:
- Diabetes (for wound care, education, or monitoring of unstable status)
- Heart disease (such as congestive heart failure, for monitoring, medication management, or therapy)
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and other respiratory illnesses (for breathing treatments, education, and symptom management)
- Neurological disorders like Parkinson’s disease or multiple sclerosis (for therapy and skilled nursing needs)
- Post-Surgical Recovery:
- Patients recovering from procedures like joint replacements or other major surgeries who require wound care, physical therapy, or skilled observation.
- Acute Illnesses or Injuries:
- Recovery from stroke, pneumonia, or other acute medical events that leave a patient temporarily homebound and in need of skilled care.
- Wound care for pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, or other complex wounds.
- Exacerbations of Existing Conditions:
- Individuals with chronic diseases experiencing a flare-up that requires closer medical monitoring and skilled intervention at home.
A physician’s order and certification that the patient is homebound and requires skilled services are generally required for home health care coverage, particularly by Medicare.

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Health
What is Home Health Care?
Home Health Care is healthcare you receive in the comfort of your home. This kind of care usually happens after illness or injury and is administered by fully certified healthcare professionals.
This kind of care includes physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, and CNA services. This means the kind of care you could expect regularly might include checking vitals, administering injections, monitoring nutrition, patient education, and more. Home Health Care aims to help you regain your independence and return to your everyday life as quickly as possible.
Who pays for home health?
Most insurances cover home health services in Utah 100%. Some insurances we accept are Medicare, Triwest, Tricare, and Worker’s Comp Fund. If you aren’t sure if your insurance covers home health services, call us!
What is the difference between home health and personal or home care services?
While both are delivered from the comfort of your home, these services are very different. Home health is skilled clinical care ordered by a health care provider. These services are focused on curative measures designed to restore you to your active lifestyle. Nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and more offer them. Personal or home care assistance involves non-clinical services, such as help around the house, transportation, bathing, and light meal preparation. They do not require any physician order and can be offered indefinitely.
How do I qualify for home health care in Utah?
To qualify for home health care near me, there must be a need for some skilled service. This could be a nursing or therapy-based need. These needs are considered necessary to help improve or maintain a patient’s current condition or prevent or slow a patient’s condition from declining. These needs can be on an intermittent basis or might require continuous help.
What if my doctor has referred me to another agency?
The agency you use for your home health needs is 100% your choice. There is no obligation to use the agency your doctor referred you to.
Do you provide home health services for people who live in assisted living facilities?
Yes. While each resident is monitored by facility staff, an assisted living facility does not provide rehabilitative or treatment-based services for its residents. We work together with the team, your provider, and your family to give the same kind of service there as you would receive at your home.
What services are included with home health?
Active Home Health’s services are intended to restore you to your busy lifestyle. These services include skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, wound care, pain management, and palliative care.
What are the advantages of Home Health Services?
One of the apparent advantages of Home Health Services is that you receive it in the comfort of your own home. For some patients, visiting a doctor’s office or clinic is impossible, so Home Health Services allows them to receive the care they need in a comfortable environment.
Another benefit is that Home Health Services can be less expensive than visiting an office or clinic. You receive the same kind of care that you would receive at a traditional doctor’s office, administered by certified healthcare professionals, but the costs are occasionally less, and the convenience is higher.
