Care at Home

A tradition of compassion.

 

Home Health

A tradition of compassion: the nurturing environment of home, coupled with the expert care provided by the Mercy Home Health staff, can make a big difference in your recovery. For more information about our Home Health program, call us at (530) 245-4040 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Our answering service will be able to assist you after hours.

The Program

Mercy Home Health enables patients to recover from illness or surgery at home rather than in a rehabilitation unit. Our registered nurses also provide care for patients who are terminally ill, injured, frail, or meet other criteria determined by their doctor. We also offer specialty programs for palliative care, heart failure, wound care, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients. All of our professional staff is licensed and our services are accredited by the Joint Commission.

Our Team

Our experienced care team of nurses, therapists, aides, and social workers, understand the importance of home health in the care continuum, and they have the clinical skills to meet home care patient needs. Partnering closely with doctors and caregivers, they work to enhance patients' health, helping them attain the highest levels of independence and quality of life.
