What Is Home Health Care?

OhioHealth at Home in partnership with Compassus in Athens, Ohio provides high-quality, compassionate in-home health care customized to fit the needs of each patient. From experienced medical professionals to skilled social workers, our team provides personalized support and comfort.

With in-home services ranging from skilled nursing visits, personal care assistance, and prescription access, our team supports our patients and their families with respect and dignity, allowing them to stay in the comfort and security of their own homes while living out their best possible life.
