NTMC serves the residents of Cooke, eastern Montague, western Grayson and northern Denton counties in Texas and southern Love County, Oklahoma.
At NTMC, we offer a full range of home health and physical therapy services.
Home health is a cost-effective alternative to hospitalization or a skilled nursing facility for those who require continuing medical assistance following a hospital stay or surgery, or professional management of a newly diagnosed or chronic condition.
Home health aides are trained to provide additional assistance to homebound patients. Aides may assist patients with personal hygiene tasks, such as bathing and grooming, as well as light housekeeping and light meal preparation on their scheduled days. All North Texas Medical Center Home Health aides are certified nursing assistants.
Outpatient therapy is designed to help you return to a productive life after an injury, surgery, illness or due to aging.
