Virgin Valley Home Care & Hospice, a division of Professional HealthCare and a leading provider of home nursing, rehabilitation therapy, and hospice services in Mesquite, Nevada, is now licensed by the state for its non-medical personal care program. Many residents throughout the region, who are familiar with the company’s home health, hospice, and medical equipment services, can now benefit from the additional, broad range of services offered through private duty in-home assistance. “We are delighted to now offer personal care services to families in Mesquite and surrounding communities,” stated John Griscavage, CEO. “People often need help with transportation, household tasks, bathing and other types of personal care following medical procedures or simply due to the effects of aging.”
There is a growing need nationwide for in-home care. The National Association for Home Care & Hospice, the leading trade association in this industry, reports on the increased use of in-home care for causes including acute illness, long-term health conditions, permanent disability, or terminal illness. It is related to the country’s aging demographics as well as the desire by most people to remain independent in their own homes for as long as possible.
“Virgin Valley Home Care & Hospice is unique in its ability to now offer continuity of care and assist with quality of life issues,” continues Griscavage. “Our highly trained personal care professionals provide services that perfectly compliment the home health services we have provided to area residents since 1992.”
