At AlphaHealth we can send a Licensed Health Care Provider to provide the needed care at your home if you are home bound. Our providers and care teams come to you, bringing care through house call visits. This in-home medical care is designed around understanding your health needs and goals. We work with you to help you stay well and stay home.
With the advent of effective home health programs, an increasing proportion of medical care is being delivered in patients' homes. Since the time before World War II, direct physician involvement in home health care has been minimal. However, patient preferences and key changes in the health care system are now creating an increased need for physician-conducted home visits. To conduct home visits effectively, physicians must acquire fundamental and well-defined attitudes, knowledge and skills in addition to an inexpensive set of portable equipment. “INHOMESSS” (standing for: immobility, nutrition, housing, others, medication, examination, safety, spirituality, services) is an easily remembered mnemonic that provides a framework for the evaluation of a patient's functional status and home environment. Expanded use of the telephone and telemedicine technology have also allowed us to conduct time-efficient “virtual” house calls that complement and sometimes replace in-person visits.
Please call us at 817-928-5428 if you are homebound and need an in-home visit by us.
