Home Health Program

APLA Health provides intensive case-management services for clients with HIV who are in need of home-based services.

Each client is assigned both a registered nurse case manager and social work case manager. This way, we ensure that all of a client’s complex needs will be addressed by a professional with the necessary specialized knowledge and expertise.

The program uses a team approach to case management. Our team provides medical case management, psychosocial services, and attendant care to clients in their homes.

Personalized, Compassionate Care

Your registered nurse case manager can help arrange for limited in-home care to assist with daily living activities and household management.

Your social work case manager can help you access various services, including in-home mental health counseling, legal services, housing assistance, benefits counseling, and transportation.
