Medicare skilled nursing care and certified home care visits are provided on an intermittent basis, with scheduled home visits to homebound clients only, under a plan of treatment ordered by a physician. They are usually designed to be a short-term measure. Following a specific plan of care, and under the supervision of a skilled discipline such as a nurse or therapist, a home health aide may provide personal care for a limited time.
