Overview of Total Home Care IV therapy and wound care aren’t services every home care agency actually provides, but Total Home Care, working out of 1419 W 24th Street in Houston’s Northside neighborhood, builds its offering around exactly that level of clinical care. Skilled nursing here covers medication management, wound care, and IV therapy, backed by occupational, physical, and speech therapy on top.
The office lands in a genuinely walkable stretch of the city, Walk Score 71, though that’s a detail about the address more than the service itself, since care happens at the client’s home.
Registered nurses and therapists run the clinical side, and every client gets an individualized care plan, offered on either an hourly or live-in basis depending on need. Beyond the clinical work, there’s home health aide support for daily living tasks, social services, safety evaluations, and educational programs. Specific focus areas include balance and fall prevention, home safety, nutrition and dietary counseling, and rehabilitation specifically geared toward hip and knee replacement recovery, a fairly targeted specialty for a home care agency.
Getting in the door requires meeting a standard threshold: clients need to be under a doctor’s care and considered homebound. That’s not unusual for this level of clinical service, but it’s worth knowing upfront.
What Total Home Care ultimately delivers is genuinely clinical in-home care, from wound management through post-surgical rehabilitation, for homebound clients in Houston’s Northside area who need more than routine daily assistance.
