Bringing back the medical house calls of yesteryear with the medical breakthroughs of today!
At Homedica, we provide the expert treatment of physicians and nurse practitioners where patients are most at ease—in the comfort and safety of their homes. For those who are unable to comfortably leave the home, we provide primary care visits to patients.
If you or a loved one find leaving home burdensome or if you cannot safely leave your home, our physicians and nurse practitioners work directly with your primary care physician to provide the same level of outstanding care to you in the comfort of your home. Care is tailored to the patient’s individual needs, thereby helping reduce hospital admissions and emergency room visits.
Being discharged from STAT Home Health does not mean you stop receiving care! Homedica House Calls can continue providing primary care in the comfort of your own home.
At Homedica House Calls, our Nurse Practitioners can:
- Help keep you out of the hospital & emergency room
- Help keep you out of a nursing home
- Recognize early signs & symptoms of decline
- Identify small problems before they become serious
