Interim Healthcare has been around since 1979 as a family-owned company, and what they do is provide home care, hospice care, and healthcare staffing, sending trained professionals like Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Licensed Clinical Social Workers, and Certified Nursing Assistants out to people's homes, and they've got a bunch of locations around New Hampshire and Maine, including Manchester, Keene, Nashua, Laconia, Portsmouth, West Lebanon, Auburn, and South Portland, and their main office is in Manchester, though the national headquarters sits in Sunrise, Florida. They work with a fairly sized team, somewhere between 201 and 500 employees, and they've got experience offering care for older adults needing help with things like bathing, grooming, meal preparation with nutritious ingredients, laundry, toileting, light housekeeping, and getting to doctor's appointments. They've also built up a big presence in the healthcare staffing world, especially in Massachusetts, helping out with staffing for different healthcare roles there and giving career opportunities for folks from per diem to full-time work, which means everything from skilled nurses to senior care aides to therapists get placed as needed.
They've set up a process that starts with an assessment where they talk about care needs, check backgrounds, driving records, drug screening, immunizations, and do in-person interviews and reference checks, and before any care starts there's a very clear care plan and agreement so everyone knows what to expect, and they've made a point to keep client privacy by using random usernames instead of names. Care happens where people live, whether it's help with daily chores, personal aide services, exercise programs, memory care support, mental health care, or help getting to a clinic. They can even help out with transfers using Hoyer lifts, grocery runs, meal service, and giving family caregivers breaks through respite care. They look after children who need home support and offer both non-medical and skilled nursing care, managing things like medicine, wound care, blood work, glucose checks, therapies like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and they give help with everything from getting ready in the morning to managing complicated health conditions.
Interim Healthcare's focus covers home health, hospice, rehabilitation, and support for seniors and children, and they have specialized memory care services, along with a strong screening process for all staff, insisting on ethics training and specialized training for memory care and validation techniques, which helps set a certain standard for the kind of care people can expect. Families can look at daily routines, food, and activities through tours, and there's online help like the Care Planner tool that helps figure out if home care or health care services fit a person's needs. The company spends time making sure they match the right caregivers through interviews and checks, and when it's time to talk about payment, they take insurance, cards, or checks, keeping things straightforward. The HomeLife Enrichment philosophy guides their standard of care, aiming to keep people as independent as possible, feeling safe and supported where they live, and there's always special attention to making care plans match each person's unique health needs. For folks needing support, whether short-term after a hospital stay or over the long term, Interim Healthcare's locally run teams handle things like home health aide services, skilled nursing, hospital-at-home support, and even school staffing, focusing on both medical and personal help as needed.
