BEDFORD — For many seniors and individuals recovering from illness or injury, remaining at home while receiving care can make all the difference in comfort, independence, and quality of life. That philosophy has guided Vertical Home Health since its founding.
The locally based home healthcare provider was established with a mission centered on helping individuals remain safe and independent in their homes while receiving compassionate, personalized care. Over the years, the company has expanded its services while continuing to focus on individualized care plans and building strong relationships with clients and families.
Located on 14th Street in Bedford, Vertical serves communities across southern and central Indiana, providing both skilled and non-skilled home healthcare services.
The company’s range of services is designed to meet the varying needs of patients, whether they require temporary assistance following surgery or ongoing daily support. Services include personal care, companionship, meal preparation, laundry assistance, light housekeeping, skilled nursing services, and other in-home support tailored to each client’s circumstances.
Vertical also provides assistance for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, medication reminders, fall prevention support, bathing assistance, and RN case management.
According to the company, the goal is to allow clients to remain in familiar surroundings while receiving the care they need. Home-based care can often provide families with peace of mind while helping clients maintain routines and independence.
Melissa Bell, the company’s human resources director, said employees are encouraged to form meaningful connections with those they serve.
“At Vertical, we’re encouraged to build real relationships with our clients,” Bell said. “You’re not just showing up for a shift—you’re showing up for a person.”
Vertical’s services include both medical and non-medical support, allowing the organization to assist clients with everyday tasks while also addressing healthcare needs. The company employs caregivers, certified nursing assistants, and skilled nursing staff to support patients in their homes.
The organization is also a licensed home health provider and Medicaid waiver provider in Indiana. Company information indicates it serves dozens of counties throughout the state, including Lawrence, Monroe, Orange, Jackson, and surrounding areas.
Vertical has grown steadily while remaining rooted in the community due to its approach, which emphasizes dignity, compassion, and individualized care for every client.
