What is Home Care and How to Get It
Patient Satisfaction Surveys
This survey is conducted through a 3rd Party Vendor and provides a statistically valid and reliable means to measure how well our home care staff meets the needs and expectations of patients. Patient satisfaction indicators are measures of the customer service behavior of home care staff.

CMS (Medicare) Guidelines
Some home health agencies do a better job of caring for their patients than others. Home health agencies give quality care when they give their patients care and treatment known to get the best results for each patient’s condition. Medicare’s Home Health Compare rates how well home health agencies care for their patients based upon various measures of quality and against state and national averages.
State Audits and Surveys
The Ohio Department of Health conducts an unannounced, in-depth, on-site audit every one to three years.
