What Are Skilled Services in Home Health Care?

Skilled services refer to medically necessary care that must be performed or supervised by licensed healthcare professionals, such as registered nurses and licensed therapists. These services are ordered by a physician and require clinical expertise, ongoing assessment, and professional judgment.

At Competent Care, our skilled services are customized to each patient’s unique health needs. We regularly assess progress, adjust care plans as needed, and ensure that skilled services align with your physician’s orders and recovery goals.
