DAYTON, Ohio /eNewsChannels/ — NEWS: Right at Home – Dayton In-Home Care and Assistance announced today that they have created a mutually beneficial alliance with Ideal Home Health Care. Right at Home – Dayton and Ideal HHC are offering a specialized collaborative approach, each with a locally focused expertise.

Right at Home – Dayton specializes in in-home geriatric care, in-home companionship, in-home assisted living for the mentally challenged, in-home rehabilitation, and respite care. They handle more private personal care cases than any other company in the Greater Dayton area. Ideal Home Health Care is a skilled nursing and therapy services company that specializes in medication management, wound care and instruction, post-surgical care, pain management, and IV therapies.

The alliance between Right at Home – Dayton and Ideal HHC aims to deliver a total solution to home care clients that prevents hospitalizations by providing continuity of care while managing costs. “There are a lot of skilled companies trying to do everything. We chose to align ourselves with an excellent skilled nursing company in order to provide our clients with the right continuity of care, exceptional service, and quality that is our benchmark,” says Michael Manes, local owner of Right at Home – Dayton.

Properly coordinated patient care is proven to help patients stay home longer and reduce hospital readmission rates. Studies show that nearly 20 percent of elderly patients are re-hospitalized within thirty days of their discharge costing clients and the Medicare program an estimated 18 billion dollars. Approximately 90 percent of these readmissions were unplanned, and could have been avoided with the correct use of post-acute care. When a patient returns home, the Right at Home – Dayton/Ideal HHC collaboration will improve the transition of care for patients by increasing effectiveness, communication, and real continuity of care. Both companies share a commitment to lowering the re-hospitalization rate of seniors and Ideal HHC currently has a re-hospitalization rate of 3 percent. This first class alliance will allow both of these local companies to provide the highest level of service and quality to exceed client expectations.

Some of the largest home-care companies in Dayton are owned by out of state conglomerates that are financially driven, and not community focused. The inevitable effect of the conglomerate financial focus is a lack of customer service and sub par patient care. Both Right at Home-Dayton and Ideal HHC are locally owned and operated. They are not only invested in the health and well-being of their clients, but also of their employees and community.

Right at Home – Dayton has prided itself on being the premiere local homecare provider to the Greater Dayton community since 2005. They have spent the last 9 years developing trusted relationships with clients and care providers such as Ideal HHC. Patients resonate with the quality of care, and service they receive therefore, Right at Home-Dayton has developed one of the best longevity ratings, with many satisfied clients staying with the company for over 5 years.

Right at Home – Dayton has extensive experience in helping seniors live independently as long as possible. Right at Home – Dayton and Ideal HHC will collaborate to tailor a total care plan that can be expanded or scaled back based on the needs of the client and family.
