Our licensed medical social workers address the emotional, social, and practical needs of patients and families — connecting you with the resources, support, and guidance you need throughout your care journey.
What is a Medical Social Worker?
A medical social worker is a licensed professional who addresses the psychosocial, emotional, and community resource needs of patients and their families. As part of your home health care team at At HomeHealth, Inc., our medical social workers play a vital role in supporting the full picture of your health — not just the clinical aspects.
Our social workers collaborate with your physician and the entire care team to ensure you and your family have the support, resources, and guidance needed to navigate your health situation with confidence.

The Whole-Person Approach to Home Health Care
At At HomeHealth, Inc., we believe that exceptional home health care means caring for the whole person — not just the medical diagnosis. Our medical social workers ensure that emotional well-being, family dynamics, financial concerns, and community connections are all addressed as part of your care plan.
Medical social work services require a physician's order. Our social workers are a fully integrated part of your home health care team.
