Home Health Care in the City of Orange, CA
One plan, many doctors
Medicare describes how this is supposed to work. Home health staff talk with your doctor or other provider about the care plan, and keep them updated on your progress. In practice, our nurses:
- compare the hospital discharge list with the medicines actually in the house;
- note what each specialist asked for and flag anything that seems to conflict;
- report changes, such as new swelling, a wound that looks different, or a fall, to the doctor who ordered the care;
- help you write down questions for the next appointment so they don’t get lost.
Who orders home health?
A doctor or other health care provider, such as a nurse practitioner, must see you in person and confirm you need home health care, then order it. Often that happens before you leave the hospital. Sometimes it happens a few days later at a follow-up visit, when it becomes clear that getting around the house is harder than expected. Either way, you can ask for the agency you prefer.

Orange neighborhoods and nearby hospitals
From our office at 13800 Arizona St #200 in Westminster, our nurses and therapists visit homes across the City of Orange, including the Old Towne historic district around the Plaza, the El Modena neighborhood, and the Orange Park Acres area. Many patients in Orange come home after a stay at UCI Health – Orange on The City Drive, Providence St. Joseph Hospital on West Stewart Drive, or Chapman Global Medical Center on East Chapman Avenue. 24/7 Care at Home is an independent agency and is not affiliated with these hospitals.
Vietnamese- and English-speaking staff
Our team speaks Vietnamese and English. When care is set up, families can ask for a Vietnamese-speaking nurse, and we work to match that request, so a parent can ask questions directly.
How referrals work
A doctor, nurse practitioner, hospital case manager or skilled nursing facility discharge planner can refer a patient to us, and families are welcome to contact 24/7 Care at Home first. We request the order from the doctor, go over Medicare or plan coverage with you, and schedule a start-of-care visit. At that visit the nurse or therapist checks medicines against the discharge list, looks at home safety and writes the plan of care with your doctor. Our agency holds a CMS Care Compare 5-star quality rating and 4-star patient survey rating (Oct 2026).

The doctor who orders home health signs the plan of care. Our nurses update that doctor and help you keep notes for other appointments.
Does Original Medicare charge a copay for home health visits?
No. If you qualify, covered home health services cost nothing. Equipment such as a walker is billed separately, usually at 20% after the Part B deductible.
Can my parent choose which agency comes to the house?
Yes. Medicare asks the ordering provider to give you a list of agencies that serve your area. Tell the hospital case manager or the doctor’s office which agency you prefer.
