Re: Home Health Services--these vary according to the state, county, etc where you live. Some are private for-profit agencies (e.g. "Nurses Calling") and some are run by social agencies. There are of course the "visiting nurses" for certain kinds of care. I would suggest that anyone interested check local phone book under"social agencies" etc. in yellow pages. Then check with a local senior center, council on aging, etc. Many cities have an "information and referral" service. A Family Service agency is always a good resource--if they can't help, they will know who can! (Pardon the plug for my old agency!) In other words, there are channels almost everywhere, including private individ uals who do home care,and may or may not be "certified"by anyone-get references Camilla Flintermann, CG for Peter, 76 /6+ Oxford,OH [log in to unmask]
