The Home Health Division at the Knox Public Health has transitioned to Knox Community Hospital and is now known as the Department of Home Health.

The staff (which includes many of the same people who worked at the Health Department) is now located at 307 Vernedale Dr., Mount Vernon (Dr. Reed's former office). You can reach them at 740-399-3748.

While there has been a change in management and a change in location, you can still expect the same reliable service and quality home health care that you have received in the past.

Patients who are homebound, either temporarily or permanently, and require medical care may qualify for home health care.  Services are available regardless of age, income, race, or disability. Private Insurance, Worker’s Comp., VA, Medicare & Medicaid accepted.

The home health program offers an alternative to extended hospital stays and nursing homes by providing professional medical and personal services while teaching the family ways to take a more active role in the patient’s care.
