patient-centered medical home
Putting patients first
The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) is a model of primary care. As a patient, this means that your care will be comprehensive, coordinated, and convenient.
foundations of care
As a certified PCMH, we follow these five foundations of patient-centered medical care:
Comprehensive care: We are able to meet the majority of your health care needs, from prevention and education to routine screenings and chronic condition management. We offer medical and dental care, as well as pharmacy, lab, radiology, and mammography services.
Patient-centered care: We make sure you have the knowledge and support to make informed health decisions. You’ll work with your care team to build a personalized health care plan, suited to your needs, culture, values, and preferences.
Coordinated care: Your care team includes your medical provider and any specialists needed, like dentists and pharmacists. On-site care coordinators will help you manage your appointments and referrals.
Accessible services: From 24-7 telephone access to a care team member to transportation assistance to a once-a-week night clinic, we strive to make health care convenient for you.
Quality and Safety: We follow an evidence-based approach to care. We measure staff performance, patient experience, and health trends across our organization and use this information to provide better care and improve health outcomes.
