Introduction to SETX Home Health by Quality Care Services of Southeast Texas
Introduction to SETX Home Health – What it is, how it works, and who can benefit. Sponsored by Quality Care Services of Beaumont.
Southeast Texas seniors are fiercely independent.
There are Southeast Texas senior citizens who have survived the Great Depression, two World Wars, and the dawn of the computer age.
At some point even the most independent Golden Triangle senior could use just a little bit of help.
A friend or relative may suggest Home Health Care. It’s a common reaction to think, “Whoa! I can do it all myself”.
Southeast Texas home health agencies understand your desire to remain independent. Quality Care Services of Beaumont has prepared a brief introduction on Home Health to help you decide if it something you might benefit from.
The following list answers some of the most common questions Southeast Texas seniors have when they first are introduced to the idea of considering Home Health.

In addition, they can minimize your visits to the doctor’s office, actually increasing your independence. | |
