Core Service

Mobile
Primary Care

Primary care brought to patients in appropriate home and community settings, based on clinical needs and provider availability.

Overview

Primary Care, Where You Are

Mobile primary care means a member of our care team comes to the patient, rather than the patient traveling to a clinic.

For many patients, that difference matters. Care delivered at home or in a community setting can be easier to attend, more comfortable, and better coordinated with the people already involved in a patient's care. What a visit includes depends on the patient's clinical needs and provider availability.

What to Expect

How a Visit Generally Works

Every patient is different, but visits generally follow a simple path.

Request & Schedule

Reach out to request a visit. We will discuss the situation and arrange a time, depending on provider availability.

The Visit

A member of our care team meets the patient in their home or community setting for an evaluation based on clinical needs.

Follow-Up

We follow up as appropriate and coordinate with families, caregivers, and other providers involved in the patient's care.

Telehealth Option

Some primary care visits and follow-ups may be available by telehealth when an in-person examination is not required. An in-person mobile visit is arranged when a hands-on assessment is needed.

Ongoing Care Coordination

Mobile primary care works best when everyone stays informed. We coordinate across the people involved in a patient's care.

  • Communication with families and caregivers, when authorized
  • Coordination with other healthcare professionals involved in care
  • Follow-up based on each patient's ongoing needs
