Distinction from Home Health Care:
Home health care focuses on medically necessary, skilled services like physical therapy, occupational therapy, or skilled nursing care.
These services are typically prescribed by a doctor and may involve specialized medical equipment.
Personal assistance services, on the other hand, are designed to support individuals in their daily lives and maintain their independence, without requiring a doctor's prescription.
In essence, non-medical personal care services aim to help individuals remain comfortable and independent in their own homes by providing assistance with everyday tasks and activities.
