Both David & Laura gave an informative presentation on home care and how it differs from home health care. Both David and Laura spoke of how they care for people they serve and can work up a home care program designed for the particular patient as to time and frequency of care with financial considerations. They discussed that Medicare does not yet cover Home Care, but VA and most long term care policies do. Laura passed out a very informative flyer that enumerated the 50 ways they can provide assistance. They have about 80 employees who are W-2 type employees, so they have a good staff for their patients.
After their presentation, David and Laura responded to various questions from the members in attendance. Thanks for a great discussion.
Following the speaker’s presentation and questions, Lion Karen Moore of The Woodlands Lions Club, a guest today, spoke about a few important Lionism things:
