Why do Colorado home health care providers need insurance?

Home health aides assist the elderly, disabled and chronically ill, helping patients live comfortably in their own homes. But accidents happen, and if you’re found responsible, you may be required to compensate the victim or their family, quickly draining your finances.

Common situations that may lead to a claim include:

  • A client slips or falls during a home visit
  • Accidental damage to a client’s property
  • Allegations of professional negligence
  • Misunderstandings about the care or services provided
  • Legal costs associated with defending a liability claim

Colorado provides home care insurance to help home health aides, home healthcare agencies and other care providers safeguard their finances, so you can continue providing care with confidence.
