What is the Nurse Practitioner Care Model?
Nursing home residents often need specialized care and support. Whether one is dealing with long-term or advanced illness, or has physical or mental disabilities, Evercare Nurse Practitioners provide the personal attention that can make a substantial difference.
We are dedicated to your unique needs and concerns. Evercare Nurse Practitioners serve as health care advocates and provide an extra level of care management. They work with you, your doctor, family and nursing home staff to help create a care plan that reflects your preferences and respects your wishes. In short, Evercare Nurse Practitioners help make sure you receive the care you need.
The health care system has a lot of moving parts. Getting them to all work together isn't easy. Evercare Nurse Practitioners help make sure all your providers, services and treatments work together in harmony with a shared goal of improving health and well-being.
Evercare Nurse Practitioners:
- Build a one-on-one relationship with you and your family
- Provide hands-on care and monitoring
- Coordinate and integrates the different aspects of your care
- Act as a vital communication link to nursing home staff, your doctor and family
Evercare Nurse Practitioners are registered nurses with advanced training and are qualified, under a physician'’s direction to:
- Conduct physical examinations
- Manage chronic conditions
- Order lab tests
- Write prescriptions (in most states)
The services you receive from your Evercare Nurse Practitioner depend on your health insurance plan. Evercare Nurse Practitioners do not take the place of your primary care physician.
