THE ELDERLY DEPEND ON HOME CARE TO KEEP THEM OUT OF THE HOSPITAL
Home care plays a big role in keeping New Jersey seniors out of the hospital. Take the care of Ann, an 89-year-old woman who had been in and out of the hospital with congestive heart failure (CHF). While CHF is life threatening, the condition can be kept under control through lifestyle changes and medication.
