Patient – Centered

As a recognized Level 3 Patient-Centered Medical Home, we are putting our patients at the forefront of care and building better relationships between patients and their care teams, while reducing health care costs. The objective is to have a centralized setting that facilitates partnerships between individual patients, and their personal physicians, and when appropriate, the patient’s family.

Integrated Care

A team of primary care and behavioral health clinicians, working together with patients and families, using a systematic and cost-effective approach to provide patient-centered care. This care may address mental health and substance abuse conditions, health behaviors, life stressors and crises, stress-related physical symptoms, and ineffective patterns of health care utilization. – Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality
