What is different about Millcreek?

     With over 100 Home Health Companies in the Salt Lake Area alone, it is important to demand the highest quality of Home Health and Hospice Care for your loved ones. These are just a few of the things we do at Millcreek to ensure that our patients get the best care possible.
Nursing Driven Care
    Millcreek is nursing driven so that your patients receive comprehensive care that addresses the many facets of any one diagnosis. Many Home Health companies use a nurse staffing service, which means that after working hours, phone calls are answered by an unfamiliar stranger. At Millcreek a staff nurse is available 24-7. All nurses who are on call participate in Case Conference and are familiar with each patient, so that if they receive a phone call at 3am, they can act and help the patient, rather then send them to the hospital or tell them to call back in the morning. Millcreek also has Hospice Certified and Certified Lymphedema Therapists so that we provide the highest quality of care possible.
Therapy
    All patient therapy is overseen by Rob Green, PT, Millcreek’s Director of Therapies. Additionally, Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists work hand in hand with our nursing team and Physicians to ensure the highest level of care. Millcreek also has a Physical Therapist who is a Certified Wound Specialist, who treats patients and hosts a bi-weekly wound conference.
Social Work
    Our Medical Social Worker, Heather Bittinger LCSW, is available to prepare advanced directives, long term planning and connect patients to community resources.
Proven Results
Most importantly, Millcreek has a proven track record of providing great care.  Millcreek ranks in the top 500 best home health agencies in the U.S. by OSC HomeCare, 1st in Salt Lake for patient outcomes by Medicare’s Home Health Compare and in the 97th percentile nationally for patient outcomes by Medicare’s Home Health Compare.
