ABSTRACT
The PA Home Health Agencies layer was developed to show the geospatial locations of home health agencies in Pennsylvania. It can be used in various emergency and health related maps. A home health agency is an organization that delivers skilled nursing and other therapeutic services to a patient’s personal residence, rather than in a more traditional healthcare facility setting. When possible, efforts were made to confirm the rooftop location of each home health agency. The accuracy of geocoding is available in Geocoding Certainty attribute field (Geocoding Certainty: Rooftop="00", Street="01", Zip Centroid="04", Not geocoded="99"). Latitude and longitude are recorded in the WGS 1984 coordinate system in decimal degrees.
