House Calls for Homebound Patients

House Calls for Homebound Patients

Overview

Nexphase health care delivers expert medical care to homebound older patients and those with complex problems.
During house call visits, physicians, nurse practitioners or physician assistants perform examinations, prescribe treatments, and provide needed immunizations and tests. They also review patient’s prescriptions, check that patients are receiving adequate nutrition, identify potential fall hazards, screen for signs of elder abuse, and offer an opportunity for any family caregivers to learn how to perform care tasks, if needed.
