Patient Centered Medical Home

We are a Patient Centered Medical Home

A Patient-Centered Medical Home is a system of care in which a team of health professionals work together to provide all of your health care needs.   We use a team approach to communicate and coordinate your care and provide the best possible outcomes for you.

As a patient, you are the most important part of a patient-centered medical home. When you take an active role in your health and work closely with us, you can be sure that you’re getting the care you need.

Who is on the patient-centered medical home care team?

Your primary care provider leads your care team, which may include specialized doctors, nurses, health educators, and other health care professionals such as pharmacists or physical therapists. Our team acts as “coaches” who help you get healthy, stay healthy, and get the care and services that are right for you. You, of course, are at the center of your care team.

How does a Patient-Centered Medical Home benefit you?
