Ever wonder what drives skilled clinicians to choose to work in home health instead of a hospital or institutional setting? There are many reasons prompting medical professionals to leave institutions behind and decide to stay in home health or home hospice roles. A significant number of clinicians who experience home health find themselves preferring it and rarely return to institutional settings. The primary reasons cited for this shift often revolve around a better work-life balance and a reduced risk of experiencing potential burnout.

Scroll to learn about the top 5 reasons why clinicians choose and love home health.

Have you ever thought "What is the difference between home health and hospice care?"

The main difference between home health and hospice is the goal of care: home health focuses on recovery and rehabilitation, while hospice focuses on comfort and quality of life at the end of life.

Home health care is curative. The goal of home health is to help patients recover from injury, surgery, or illness, or progress toward improved functionality. A patient must be homebound to receive Medicare benefits for home health services. Patients typically require intermittent skilled nursing care, physical therapy, speech-language pathology services, or continued occupational services, as prescribed by their doctor. The duration of home health services depends on the patient’s care plan and goals.

Hospice provides comfort care to a patient with advanced illness when curative medical treatments are no longer effective or preferred. The goal of hospice is symptom management and quality of life. A patient must have a life expectancy of six months or less if their disease runs its natural course, as certified by a physician. “Routine” hospice care takes place wherever the patient calls home—a private residence, nursing home, assisted living community, or residential care facility for the elderly. In addition to routine care, hospice provides continuous care or inpatient care for acute symptom management, as well as respite care.

Please reach out if you or a loved one has any questions that have not been answered. We would be more than happy to have telephone conversation or in person goals of care/informational.

See full review below:

"“I just finished my home health care experience with Signature, and was totally impressed with their professionalism and follow-through. The entire team was friendly, helpful and sincere in their efforts to assist in my home recovery after a bad fall. Jamie’s analytical oversight helped insure that the home environment was updated with appropriate improvements to make sure that my PT and OT could be safely accomplished. His insights on the course of treatment gave me a clear understanding of what I needed to do. Travis provided physical therapy guidance that was specific and helped me understand the desired outcome of each exercise, and the exact mechanics of how to do each one. Kazia really made the hygiene care functional within my physical limitations. She was very caring and had great advice regarding equipment usage. Matt ensured that the PT program was appropriate to my situation and that all objectives were met. Jovy, the nurse provided a level of QC from the nursing perspective. Overall, the team was clear in their direction in helping me meet my goals, and timely in communication. I especially appreciated meeting with John, the Signature Coordinator (community liaison), at my rehab facility. He helped make this transition seamless and inspired my confidence in “next steps”. Kudos to the Signature team! They were great folks to work with" - Island County, WA (2026
