“Because There is No Place Like Home”
Celebrating Home Care Week
November 13th-19th, 2011
“There’s no place like home.” Movie goers worldwide know this famous phrase from “The Wizards of Oz.” Despite the wonders of Oz, Dorothy clicks the heels of her ruby shoes and repeats these words again and again, the spell that will send her back to Auntie Em. She longs to go back to Kansas because there is no place like home.
Millions of people feel that way, especially if they’re aged, disabled, or ill. Many of them are in hospitals and nursing homes where they, too, long for the homes they knew. But they don’t need ruby slippers to send them back. They just need a helping hand, and that’s where home care can assist. Home care helps clients return to their home and keeps them safe and healthy at home. It preserves their dignity, protects their independence, and provides them with peace of mind.
For Twenty Years, Bates County Memorial Hospital Homecare has provided Home Health Services, for the citizens of Bates County. This week is Home Care Week, and the staff of BCMH Home Care department invites you to celebrate with an information table in the front lobby, treats, and word puzzle to complete for a drawing on Friday, November 18th.
