So many people hesitate to ask for help at home because they think home health care is only for the elderly—or that accepting it means they’re giving up their independence. But honestly? That couldn’t be further from the truth. In this episode, we’re talking through the biggest myths that keep folks from getting the kind of care that could actually help them heal and feel more in control of their lives.

We’re breaking down things like, do you really have to be elderly to qualify? Is it only for people who are permanently homebound? And what’s the actual difference between home health and private duty care? If you’ve ever thought, “I’ve got family to help, so I probably don’t need it,” this episode will give you a new perspective.

This one’s especially for anyone who's been unsure about whether home health is the right step—or who’s just been overwhelmed by the whole idea of it. We’re clearing the air, sharing the facts, and having an honest conversation about what support at home can really look like. Tune in—you might be surprised by what you learn.
