Oak Hill

Home care in Oak Hill, 15 minutes down US-1

Our Home Healthcare is a licensed home health agency in Edgewater, Florida, and Oak Hill is 15 minutes south of our office on US-1. Our nurses and caregivers come to houses along the lagoon, on the side roads off US-1 and toward the seashore. Oak Hill is small, and we come anyway, on the same schedule as everywhere else.

What you get

5 promises we keep in Oak Hill

Oak Hill is the south end of our home turf. The rules are the same ones Dana wrote for her own father, and they do not change with the mileage.

1

A nurse on every case

Priya drives down US-1 at least every 30 days to see every Oak Hill client herself, companion cases included. Florida asks for every 60.

2

The same faces

A primary caregiver and 1 backup, and no more than 3 people in your first 90 days. If a match is wrong, Jordan changes it within the week.

3

A person answers, day and night

Day or night, (386) 272-6048 gets a person. After 5 pm that person is the on-call nurse.

4

Care within 48 hours

Free visit within 24 hours of the call, first shift within 48, Oak Hill included.

5

Prices on the website

Steve read the price on this site and that was the price he paid. $32 an hour, no deposit, no contract.

The town

A fishing town on the lagoon, and the care that suits Oak Hill

Oak Hill is a small town at the south end of Volusia County, strung along US-1 between the railroad and Mosquito Lagoon. It has been a fishing village for a century and it still feels like one. Boat ramps and fish camps on the water, older frame and block houses on big lots under the oaks, and a few newer homes on the side roads west of the highway. South of town the road runs into Canaveral National Seashore and ends. People here have mostly been here a long time. They know their neighbours, they do not want to move up to Daytona, and they do not want a different stranger at the door each week.

Steve's father is in Oak Hill. Jordan matches each Oak Hill client with a caregiver who lives nearby where possible, so the same person can make the drive in any weather, and Priya makes the trip herself for every nurse visit.

What families ask for

What Oak Hill families ask for most

Oak Hill calls are usually about a parent who is managing, mostly, and needs a hand with the parts that have got hard. These 3 cover nearly all of them.

Personal care

Help with the shower, dressing, getting up and to bed, meals and medication reminders. 4 hours a visit up to 24 hours a day, with a nurse writing the plan.

Companion and homemaker care

A ride to the doctor in New Smyrna Beach or Daytona, the shopping, the laundry, a drive out to the seashore road, and someone to talk to while the fish fry.

Skilled nursing at home

Priya or an LPN at the house for medications, wound care, blood pressure and heart or lung checks, $95 a visit. It saves a trip to town for people who no longer drive.

What families in Oak Hill and New Smyrna Beach say

They told me the price on the website and that was the price. Nobody else would do that.
