Many people long to come home after spending time in a hospital following an illness or injury. But what about the care that’s needed once you’re there? It can be overwhelming for a caregiver to take on all of that responsibility alone. That’s where Peninsula Home Care can help. PHC “has been providing award winning care to patients on the Lower Shore of Delmarva since 1985. Licensed and certified in home health care, we offer highly skilled care in the comfort of your own home.”

Robyn Coughenour, branch director for PHC at Nanticoke, says there are certain criteria families want to check before choosing a home health care agency:

Make sure the agency is Medicare-certified
Find out how long the agency has been in business
Make sure the agency provides the services the patient needs

With “Home Health Compare,” families are also able to compare agencies in the area, so they can choose what is best for them.
