Yes. Compassionate Hearts Home Care lists home infusion in non-hospital and non-clinic settings. Confirm the medication, nursing requirements, and referral process before scheduling.
Is 24-hour in-home personal care available?
Compassionate Hearts Home Care lists 24-hour personal care. Ask whether coverage is continuous or arranged in shifts, and whether private pay or long-term-care funding applies.
