Androscoggin Home Care & Hospice's Supportive Care Program gives you the flexibility to purchase the home-based care and assistance you need to live safely and independently in the comfortable surroundings of your home.
Supportive Care offers a variety of home-based services. Unlike our traditional Skilled Home Care services for acute medical needs, Supportive Care services are designed by the client and family to address their needs and do not require a physician's order.
Supportive Care can often be a flexible, cost-effective alternative to long-term residential or nursing home care.
Whether you need some extra help for yourself or another family member, there's no substitute for the security and peace of mind that Supportive Care can bring.
