Each patient is assigned to a team that is led by a physician. The team will consist of several nurses (and a physical therapist if needed) that have the specific evidence based best practice experience required to meet the patient’s home healthcare needs. Using this approach allows the patient to become familiar with their medical team so the patient does not encounter an unfamiliar nurse. This approach provides consistency in care delivered while encouraging an environment of trust for the patient and family. As an added safety measure for the patient and family all staff are equipped with a company smart phone allowing for 24/7 communication between the nurses on duty, the nursing management team, and the physician. Mandatory continuing medical education for all medical staff ensures they provide safe patient centered care in the comfort of their home.
The patient and family are responsible for providing a safe environment for care
A clinical case manager coordinates care within and collaborates care outside of the organization
A rotating team of 7 nurses are experts on the patient’s diagnoses and preferences
The physician is a native-Arabic speaker who develops a plan of care and prescribes treatment
