Professional Healthcare Services (PHS) offers a unique service to families who face challenges with elders or other loved ones requiring temporary or permanent assistance
Why we are different
Professional Healthcare Services (PHS) is a unique agency that is licensed for both Personal Care and Skilled Home Health Care. This enables us to provide a full range of services to our clients.
Many times individuals initially may only need minimal services, however as they get older they may require additional help. In other situations they may come home from the hospital or from outpatient surgery and have a need for significant services, but as they get stronger they may not need as much help. In either case PHS can provide whatever care is needed.
Our customized care program is developed based on the needs and desires of our clients.
Scope of Care
Our customized care program is available to any individual or a family that is concerned about a loved one who may need care.There are many situations where care is called for such as a person who

The Interview
To determine the scope of service required, a Licensed Nurse from Professional Healthcare Services will meet with those involved to listen to their needs and desires. We will also evaluate and make suggestions as to the type of service we recommend as well as the approximate amount of time required to provide the care.

Respite Care
In addition to the above services, PHS also offers Respite care (defined as a “breather or a relief) for family members who provide care for loved ones. Respite care is very necessary in cases where families are deeply involved on a daily basis providing care to a family member. The family needs and deserves a “break” from a daily routine of providing care. PHS can provide you this respite by taking the full responsibility in the care of your loved one on a temporary basis allowing you a much needed break to take a vacation or maybe just a long weekend
