Pulse Home Health Care

2325 Severn Ave, Suite 5
Metairie
Louisiana
(504) 831-7778

We are a locally owned, private, independent home health agency that has served our neighbors in New Orleans and the nine surrounding parishes for more than a decade. In that time, our dedication to the highest level of home medical care for our patients has led to multiple national accolades. If you do us the honor of allowing Pulse to be your home health agency, our family promises your family that we will deliver the same excellent service for you.

Medicare pays 100%. When home health keeps patients healthier, prevents a hospitalization, or shortens an inpatient stay, Medicare saves money. That's why Medicare encourages you to use home health when you are homebound and have a medical need for nursing or therapy. As a Medicare-certified agency, Pulse receives 100% reimbursement from Medicare for your care. You have no-copay or deductible. The Medicare payment even picks up the cost of the medical supplies we use in the delivery of your care.
