Enjoy the Convenience of Home Care

Medicare Part A will cover many healthcare services including, but not limited to, physical/occupational therapy, wound care, skilled nursing, and assistance with such activities as bathing and dressing.

Typically, health insurance programs do not cover non-healthcare-related assistance unless you are recovering at home after a qualified hospital stay or illness. Medicare may cover some of our non-healthcare-related Home Care services in this instance, as well.

Some, but not all, long-term care insurance policies cover some of the costs of services that allow you to remain independent in your home. In Polk County, WesleyLife uses grant funding to provide home-based services to people who cannot otherwise afford care in their homes.

To speak with our team about your specific needs and available funding sources, please contact us.

You must have a physician's order for services and be able to leave your home only infrequently to qualify for Medicare reimbursement for healthcare services from WesleyLife at home services.

There is no limit to the number of days you can receive services. As long as you continue to require skilled medical care, you can receive Medicare services.

We accept most insurance plans, including Medicaid, Medicaid waivers, Veterans Affairs, and private or commercial insurance policies.

For healthcare needs, please contact us so we can discuss your specific insurance coverage and other funding sources.

For non-healthcare-related assistance, prices start as low as $27 an hour. If you live in a WesleyLife community, you will be asked to schedule assistance for a minimum of two hours of services. If you live outside of our communities, you will be asked to schedule a minimum of three hours to ensure we can meet your needs. 

Either you or your physician can contact us at wesleylifeathome@wesleylife.org or (515) 978-2777.

WesleyLife At Home will work closely with your physician to set up the initial plan of care and to monitor your progress. We will handle all of the necessary paperwork so you can focus on getting well.
