UHS Home Care to expand to three more counties

UHS Home Care will soon be bringing its Broome County-based home health services to the residents of Chenango, Delaware and Tioga counties. The home care agency has won approval from the New York State Department of Health to expand into the three counties, each of which borders Broome.

“Operating from newly renovated offices at 601 Riverside Drive in Johnson City, the agency will send professional caregivers to patients’ homes in the three additional counties, and will partner with UHS Chenango Memorial Hospital, UHS Delaware Valley Hospital and the UHS-affiliated physician offices,” said Greg Rittenhouse, vice president and chief operating officer of UHS Home Care.

UHS Home Care is a combination of Professional Home Care, Twin Tier Home Health and the Ideal Long Term Home Health Care program. It is one of the top 100 home care agencies in the United States, and the only top-100 agency in New York State, according to the 2012 Home Care Elite Program of the National Research Corp. The agency provides such home health services as nursing and home health aide care; physical, occupational and speech therapies; nutritional and companion services; respiratory therapy and oxygen; medical social services; and a home alarm response service.
