Bringing Healthcare Home
Continuous Care services are provided for patients who need long-term care. These services are designed for chronically ill adults, as well as those who are healthy but need assistance to maintain the level of independence they desire. The goal of Continuous Care services is to support the patient, promote independence in self-care, and improve quality of life. We also provide supplemental staffing for health-care organizations and other facilities.
All Continuous Care services listed below are available in Alamance, Caswell, western Orange and Guilford counties. We also provide HIV services in Rockingham County. These services are available for patients who have been released from any area hospital; however it is not necessary to be hospitalized before receiving continuous care services.
