Physician Visits at Home

Call 216.444.4663 Overview Why Choose Us Insurance Schedule Appointment For Referring Physicians Overview

Overview

When getting to a doctor's office is too difficult, Cleveland Clinic physicians can come to you. The team travels around Northeast Ohio to provide high-quality care where it's most comfortable and convenient - in your home. Our services include: Ongoing primary medical care and management of chronic illness. Visits are scheduled as needed, usually once every four to 12 weeks. Prescription refills. Arranging testing or specialist visits. Blood work, X-rays and other services also can be done at home. Geriatric consults. Our providers help evaluate memory, physical and mental capacity, fall risk and more. Arranging social support services. We can contact community agencies or other resources to help patients get the care they need. We can help with end-of-life discussions and determining goals of care. Studies show that patients who receive medical care at home function better at home and have a lower rate of moving into a skilled nursing facility. In addition, they are 20 to 30 percent less likely to be hospitalized each year.
