Ohio figures as of 2025. City-level data not yet published.
Median costs for home health care in Portsmouth versus Ohio and the middle state nationally. The 25th and 75th percentile rows are the modeled range explained on the methodology page; in the national column they are percentiles across state medians. Figures are estimates, not quotes. Home health is priced here at the survey's merged rate for non-medical home caregivers, because the survey no longer prices skilled nursing or therapy visits separately. Skilled visits are usually billed per visit.

A note on counting: we show 6 licensed home health care agencies listed for Portsmouth proper. Other sites show bigger numbers when they count a wide radius. Nearby options are linked below, labeled by city.
Providers appear with their government data: license status, capacity, inspection history, and a CMS star rating where the service has one. The order is the date we last verified each record, newest first. Nobody pays to appear, and nobody pays to move up. If a listing says "Sponsored," a provider paid for that placement and the label says so.
Looking for a transparent sort by CMS stars, inspection records, and staffing? That is a separate data ranking, not an editorial pick.
Sponsored placements, when they appear, are always labeled. How we make money →
