Care management is a collaborative practice model that involves the patient/family, nurses, social workers and physicians. We partner with home care, insurance providers, caregivers and the community on behalf of our patients and families. Our care management team helps to facilitate communication, coordinate resources and referrals, and provide the tools and guidance to help our patients achieve optimal health.
