- Difference between Home Health and Home Care: Home health involves medical services prescribed by a doctor, such as physical therapy and wound care, whereas home care includes non-medical assistance with daily activities.
- Importance of Using Reputable Agencies: Reputable home care agencies conduct background checks, provide necessary training, and ensure caregivers are properly insured, unlike some private caregivers or registries.
- Risks of Hiring Private Caregivers: Private caregivers might lack proper training, insurance, and background checks, posing risks to the elderly.
- Consumer Protection Tips: Verify the credentials of home care providers, ask for workers’ compensation and theft insurance certificates, and understand the legal implications of hiring private caregivers.
- Role of AZNHA: The Arizona in Home Care Association monitors and ensures its members adhere to best practices in the home care industry, providing a safer option for families seeking care for their loved ones.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
