April 2025

As the healthcare landscape continues to evolve, home health services are seeing a significant increase in demand across the U.S. Experts say it’s a shift fueled by aging populations, rising healthcare costs, and a growing preference for personalized, at-home medical care.

According to recent data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the number of patients receiving home health care has increased by over 15% in the past year alone. Home health services offer a broad range of medical and non-medical care, including skilled nursing, physical therapy, medication management, and assistance with daily activities—all delivered in the comfort of one’s home.
