Home Health Care Programs in Virginia
Specific emphasis was placed on our specialty programs to reduce re-hospitalizations. We have a proven track record and area hospitals work closely with us for this reason. The single most important piece of these programs is patient participation.
Orthopedics
Protocols designed by the surgeon or treating physician are on file or sent by the hospital to follow exactly what your physician wants our clinicians to do in your recovery from an injury or surgery. We are specialists in joint replacement and spinal surgeries.
Respiratory Care
This program is specifically designed to treat moderate to chronic respiratory illnesses such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We have a specific set of protocols designed and proven to reduce readmissions and improve quality of life. We work very closely with the largest area pulmonary practice and have unique access to their services.
Cardiac Care
The Cardiac Management Program is designed to help patients recover from cardiac events and reduce the number of recurring events through the management of symptoms, diet, exercise, and medication. We work with your cardiologist post hospitalization to design a treatment regimen to prevent re-hospitalization. The leading disease causing re-hospitalization is congestive heart failure (CHF), and our program is proven to reduce readmissions below the national and local averages.
Neurological Diseases
Neurological disease management programs at James River Home Health stand on a solid foundation of neurological sub-specialized clinicians. We have expert clinicians in the following: stroke/cerebrovascular accident (CVA) care, Parkinson’s disease management, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis care, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)/Lou Gehrig’s disease management, and dementia and Alzheimer’s disease care.
Complex Care
At James River Home Health and Hospice, we understand that managing complex medical conditions requires a compassionate and comprehensive approach. Our Complex Care Program is designed to provide specialized support for individuals facing challenging health conditions, including congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), dementia, liver or kidney failure, wounds, cancer, and those with a history of frequent hospitalizations.
Our dedicated team of skilled professionals work closely with patients, families, and physicians to create personalized care plans tailored to each individual’s unique needs. By focusing on symptom management, medication adherence, and lifestyle adjustments, we aim to enhance the quality of life and reduce the risk of hospital readmissions.
