Home-based Care
Private Home Services
People who remain in their homes achieve a greater sense of independence and security while improving the quality of their lives.
Once you are home, settling in with a new baby can be a joy and a challenge. There are so many things to do and so little time to do them — especially if you have other children. Private Home Services offers a wide range of assistance to help you and your new family.
Private Home Services
Often patients who are recovering from major illnesses, surgery or childbirth discover they cannot do everything for themselves. The once simple act of bathing or preparing a meal can turn into a difficult challenge during recovery.
Holy Cross Hospital offers services designed to help people as they recover. Holy Cross Private Home Services, Inc., a licensed, residential-services agency, provides personal-care services to patients in the comfort of their homes.
