Norton Healthcare and LHC Group Inc. have teamed up to create Norton Home Health — a new home health care option for your patients in the Louisville area.

Norton Home Health will provide a full range of home care, and referring physicians can trust that their treatment plans will be followed thoroughly and accurately. Our home health care clinicians are committed to helping your patients recover or manage a chronic condition in the comfort of their own home.

We work with you and your patient to implement a care strategy.

“We are pleased to partner with LHC Group to enhance the home health services we provide for our patients,” said Russell F. Cox, president and CEO, Norton Healthcare. “Through Norton Home Health, patients will receive care to regain strength and independence following an injury or illness, or when dealing with a chronic condition or disabling disease. They also will benefit from a multidisciplinary approach to treatment that is monitored through their integrated electronic medical records, stay connected to their health records and communicate with their providers through MyNortonChart.”

In-home care supports faster recovery and patient independence.

“It’s a benefit for our patients to receive health care in their own environment as they work to regain strength and independence,” said Kathleen S. Exline, R.N., MSN, system vice president, performance excellence and care continuum for Norton Healthcare. “Our providers, including home health nurses, therapists and social workers, will offer valuable guidance and support, and provide the educational tools and resources patients and families need to make informed decisions on care for themselves or a loved one.”

Home health care is an effective and affordable solution for many patients’ post-acute care needs and situations. This partnership will help patients manage health care costs and hospital admission rates.
