Licensed nurses collaborate with doctors to create a personalized Plan of Care that addresses the healthcare needs of each individual. They schedule regular visits to educate the client about their own health and to assess the progress made towards the treatment goals set by the healthcare team.

Physical therapists are licensed professionals that help improve movement and manage pain caused by illness, disability and/or injury. They are essential in the rehabilitation, treatment and prevention of patients with chronic conditions.

Occupational therapists are licensed professionals that help patients overcome challenges that make independent living difficult. Their role is to help individuals recover, develop and maintain the skills necessary for daily functioning that have been affected by illness, disability and/or injury.

Speech therapists are licensed professionals that diagnose, treat and help prevent communication and swallowing difficulties. They are important in cases where the patient’s ability to communicate has been affected by various medical conditions (e.g. stroke, Parkinson’s disease, deafness, etc.).

Medical social workers are licensed professionals who specialize in advocating for patients. They facilitate ways for clients to receive medical care, find appropriate programs/facilities, obtain transportation and pay for their healthcare costs.

Home health aides are professionals that assist ill, disabled, and/or injured individuals with daily living activities. Unlike caregivers, HHAs are licensed and have the ability to provide basic medical services (e.g. checking vitals, giving medications, etc.) under the supervision of a nurse.
