In 1971, as home health agencies were beginning to emerge, Cozad Community Hospital leadership had the foresight to start a home care agency in Cozad. The first patients were seen in August of 1971. One RN and one home health aide comprised the entire home health staff.
The Medicare & Medicaid certified Agency has since come to be known as Central Plains Home Health, covering 5 counties, employing 16 individuals who make over 7000 home visits each year.In 1986, hospice services were added, providing care to the terminally ill. Central Plains Hospice began as a volunteer organization, until 1995 when it became certified by Medicare.

Home health care is skilled, medical healthcare services that are provided by trained professionals in the patient's home. Home health care is for individuals who are experiencing a change in their health status and require intervention by professional nurses or therapists with goals to return to their prior level of functioning.
Hospice is a philosophy of caring for patients whose medical conditions are not responding to treatment or for those who choose not to seek aggressive medical care at the end stage of life. It is a program for patients who are considered terminal and have a life expectancy of less than 6 months. The philosophy of hospice focuses on comfort - not cure.
Private duty home care is non-medical, unskilled care. Patients who have experienced a gradual decline in their health and ability to function on their own may benefit from private duty home care as it helps to increase their independence and keep them safe in their home.
Home care personnel are trained to identify small changes in patient condition, and can notify the family or physician, before those problems manifest into emergent exacerbations.Prevention and early detection of problems help individuals be able to remain home in the long run. The cost of private duty home care may be covered by Medicaid, long-term care insurance policies or out of pocket.
