In addition to health care benefits, members can receive Home Care Services through Boston Senior Home Care. A team of health professionals develops a plan to total individualized care for each client. Services are provided by a network of medical and other professionals (including a primary care doctor, nurses, specialists, and a geriatric social support coordinator).
