Nursing Care Coordination
Meet with a Nursing Care Coordinator
Patients have a wide range of care needs. Some have multiple or more complicated health needs; other have one problem to manage, and others are doing what they can to stay healthy. Our Nursing Team is uniquely trained and licensed to work with the Care Team to assess needs and create a specific plan of care for each patient.
Our goal is that every patient has a plan of care that includes treatment plans for medical, dental, and behavioral health care. You can count on our nursing staff to:
- Lead a coordinated team-based approach to patient care.
- Identify factors that prevent patients from optimizing their health.
- Build a patient centered care plan with input from the patient and their care giver to address those factors.
- Work 1:1 with patients to monitor and help achieve their health goals.
- Beyond goals related to a specific diagnosis or a chronic condition, they work to identify and help patients stay healthy and up to date with healthy behaviors such as preventive screenings and immunizations.
