Transforming Care with a Personal Touch: A Day in the Life of a Home Health Nurse
Scott Maynard, RN, has found his calling with South County Home Health, where he customizes care to fit each patient’s home setting. “The reason I like working for SCHH is being able to tailor patients' care plans to their specific home environments, allowing them to remain independent for as long as possible,” Scott explains. This personalized approach lets him support patients through every stage of their recovery, making his role one where he truly sees the positive impact of his care.
“It’s unique—you get to see the progress from admission through discharge. Unlike in a hospital setting where patients move on after treatment, here I get to support them as they regain independence.”
Flexibility That Puts Family First
One of the many benefits of a career with SCHH is the flexibility that Scott, as a father of two teenagers, values deeply. South County Health supports its home health nurses by offering a flexible schedule, empowering Scott to balance his work with his family’s needs and activities. This adaptability allows him to enjoy a fulfilling career without sacrificing family time, a benefit that resonates with many in today’s healthcare landscape.
“This position allows me to maintain my work-life balance by allowing flexibility in my schedule. I can schedule my work around various activities my children are involved in.”
Building Trust in a Close-Knit Community
South County Health’s deep-rooted commitment to its patients sets it apart as a healthcare provider and as a workplace. Scott has seen firsthand how SCHH’s reputation for exceptional care fosters trust in the community. In the small communities they serve, word of mouth is powerful, and past and present patients continually share positive experiences. For Scott, this connection is one of the most rewarding parts of working with SCHH.
“SCHH has a great connection with their patients and is truly trusted. The South County Health system has grown over the years, and the great care people receive gets spread through the community.”
