FirstLantic Healthcare provides Medicare Certified Home Care services in Broward and Palm Beach Counties, Florida.

You are eligible for Medicare Home Care if:
  • You currently have Medicare, Part A (non-HMO)
  • Your physician determines that you need home health care, and writes a prescription for home health care services
  • You are "homebound", meaning that it is very difficult for you to leave your home due to your medical condition
  • You require the services of a Nurse, Physical Therapist and/or Speech Language Pathologist
Medicare Home care provides the following types of care:
  • Skilled Nursing Care
  • Physical Therapy
  • Occupational Therapy
  • Speech Therapy
  • Social Work Services
  • Dietary Services
The Medicare staff at FirstLantic Healthcare will help you obtain durable medical equipment (such as a cane, walker, wheelchair, portable commode, just to name a few) and necessary supplies (diabetic, wound care, catheter supplies, just to name a few).

At FirstLantic Healthcare, our Medicare staff keeps your physician informed of your progress and status on a regular basis. We believe in team work and a multidisciplinary approach to care.

How do I know what type of home care I need?
FirstLantic provides an initial assessment by a qualified health care professional, at which time the client’s needs are identified to determine what type of home care would best meet her/his individual situation.

How long will Medicare pay for my home care?
Medicare is designed to take care of acute (short term) problems, not chronic (long term) issues. Medicare home care will continue to pay for skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy as long as the patient is making continued progress in therapy, requires nursing and remains homebound. Once the patient has reached her/his maximum potential in therapy, Medicare will discontinue services. Your physician also must be willing to state the Medicare home care services are needed.
