I’ve had 6 right knee surgeries so far and I’ve been impressed with my physical therapist’s tenacity, empathy, skill, knowledge, helpfulness, dependability and willingness to research any problem relating to PT I encountered. Her personality was caring and positive and she was extremely resourceful.

The differences are also significant however, as home health care is prescribed to assist an individual in recovering from an illness or injury and helping individuals to maintain their health. Hospice care is prescribed to support an individual and provide pain management when the end of life is near, typically when life expectancy is six months or less.
