What does home care in Morris Park, Bronx include?

Every family’s needs look a little different. For example, one parent may need a few hours of help each morning. Another may need an aide for most of the day after a hospital stay. FADMO offers several kinds of care in Morris Park and nearby neighborhoods:

• Home health aides and personal care. Help with bathing, dressing, toileting, meals, and walking safely.
• Skilled nursing. Registered nurses and LPNs for visits, health monitoring, and caregiver teaching.
• Wound care and medication support. Nursing care that follows a physician’s orders.
• Hospital sitter services. A calm companion at the bedside during a hospital stay.
• NHTD and TBI waiver services. Support for eligible adults who want to keep living in the community.

Of course, your loved one’s doctor and care team decide what is medically right. Our role is to deliver that plan of care with kindness and skill.

Why a nearby Bronx agency matters

Morris Park is a close-knit East Bronx neighborhood of family homes, local shops, and longtime residents. Many families here also care for an aging parent while working full time. A home care agency close by can make that balance easier. For instance, coordinators can visit, meet the family, and adjust a schedule without a long trip.

Our Bronx home care office also serves Westchester Square, Pelham Bay, Throggs Neck, Parkchester, and Van Nest. In addition, our caregivers speak English, Spanish, French, Haitian Creole, and Arabic. Families can talk with us in the language they use at home.

How Morris Park families pay for home care

Most of our Bronx clients use Medicaid through a Managed Long Term Care (MLTC) plan. An MLTC plan is a Medicaid health plan that arranges long-term services at home, such as aides and nursing. In New York, most adults 21 and older with Medicare and Medicaid must join an MLTC plan. This applies when they need community-based long-term care for more than 120 days. The NYS Department of Health MLTC overview explains these rules.

First, the New York Independent Assessor completes a Community Health Assessment to review your loved one’s needs. Then the plan decides how many hours of care it will approve. FADMO currently works with VillageCareMAX, Anthem, ArchCare, and VNS Health. We also accept private pay, long-term care insurance, and the NHTD waiver. If your family uses VillageCareMAX, read our guide on getting a VillageCareMAX aide in the Bronx. Coverage always depends on the plan and the assessment, so call us to confirm your options.
