Qualifying for Home Health

To qualify for home health services, you must:

  • Meet Medicare’s definition of homebound

    • Leaving the home requires a “considerable and taxing effort” which results in you leaving your home infrequently

      • You can be temporarily homebound due to illness or injury

    • Upon request from you or physician referral, we will coordinate directly with your physician

If you or someone you know may benefit from nursing or rehab therapy, please call Community Home Health at (805) 270-4500.
