Can we keep our own doctor?
Yes! You can keep your own doctor. SmartCare Home Health Services has a health care professional team that will coordinate a care plan with your physician. We remain on-call 24 hours every day of the year.
After finalizing our contract, a SmartCare caregiver will be assigned to coordinate your care at home. He or she will work with your physician to make sure all your needs are met. Your caregiver will make sure you receive specialized help, from emotional support to physical therapy, to wound care.
