Home Care

Many of the cares and services that are available in a hospital or nursing home are also available in the comfort of your own home.

To expand the continuum of care, Prairie Home Hospice established Prairie Home Community Care, adding home health services. We provide a variety of home health services ranging from casual assistance with personal cares, meals or light housekeeping to a high level of skilled nursing. Whether you just need a little help to remain living independently in your own home, or you need care and support following a serious injury, illness or surgery, we can design a care plan to help you receive the care you need in the comfort of your own home.
