Healthcare Services in the Comfort of Your Home:
“Home Care”
Advances in technology now allow many treatments that once required hospitalization to be performed at home. Güven Home Health and Care Services aim to provide patients with access to quality healthcare in the most comfortable environment — their own homes.
What Is Home Care and What Services Does It Include?
Home health and care services involve providing medical examinations, diagnostic tests, treatment, ongoing care, rehabilitation, social support, and self-care assistance to individuals who require healthcare due to various illnesses — all within the comfort of their home and family environment. These services also include social counseling and guidance for both patients and caregivers.
What Are the Benefits of Home Care for Patients?
Technological advancements make it possible to carry out many diagnostic, testing, and treatment procedures at home that were once only available in hospitals. Tests, treatments, and follow-ups can be performed at home in a more cost-effective manner. Patients receive necessary medical care in their own homes — the most comfortable and risk-free setting — without exposure to potential hospital or laboratory-related risks.
How Are Home Care Services Provided?
Home care services are carried out by physicians and healthcare personnel during working hours. However, accessibility to healthcare professionals and physicians is available 24/7 to ensure continuity of care. After an initial evaluation and assessment by the home care physician and medical team, a home visit is conducted, and a personalized care plan is developed by the physician. This plan is created in coordination with the patient and their family, taking into account their preferences and feasibility. All interventions and developments are reported to the home care physician or the patient’s attending physician, and treatment plans are adjusted as needed based on their guidance.
What Services Are Provided Under Home Care?
Our home care services include physician consultations, nursing care, dietitian services, all laboratory tests, radiology services, cardiological assessments, physical therapy, prenatal follow-up, newborn care, and postpartum care (including mother-baby adaptation and education). We also provide postoperative medical follow-up and care, wound and catheter management, dressing changes, chronic disease management, elderly patient care, diabetes education and monitoring, palliative care, respiratory therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, personal care support, and companion assistance.
Can You Give Examples of the Services You Provide?
We are aware that maintaining the health and care of bedridden patients — whether due to aging, dementia, or past illnesses — can be extremely challenging. We offer self-care support services for patients of all ages and individuals with disabilities who have difficulty performing daily activities such as eating, drinking, personal hygiene, toileting, or even reading the newspaper, making life easier for both patients and their families. Our mother and newborn care services include the baby’s first medical assessment and follow-up, bathing, umbilical cord care, nutrition and breastfeeding education, and colic management — all designed to support and simplify the lives of mothers and their newborns. These are just a few examples of the services we offer.
