Enhanced Health & Recovery

Enhanced Health & Recovery: Support Through Healing, Stability, and Transition

The Enhanced Health & Recovery plan is designed for individuals who require structured, health-focused support at home due to recovery from illness or surgery, chronic health conditions, or increased functional needs. This plan bridges the gap between daily home support and formal healthcare services by providing consistent, observation-based, and recovery-oriented care.

 

Health-linked support focused on recovery and stability

This plan provides health-linked, non-medical support designed to promote recovery, stability, and safe daily functioning for individuals with higher or changing care needs.

Trained caregivers experienced with complex care needs

Care is delivered by trained and experienced caregivers who are familiar with supporting clients recovering from illness, managing chronic conditions, or requiring higher levels of daily assistance.

Structured visits with enhanced monitoring and coordination

Visits are structured and purposeful, with enhanced observation, routine support, and coordination to help identify changes early and support continuity of care.
