What to expect on your first visit

Your first visit can feel unfamiliar, whether you are seen at the clinic or at home. Here is exactly what happens so you feel prepared and comfortable.

1. Your clinician introduces themselves, reviews your medical history, and discusses your goals and concerns.
2. A thorough assessment is done at the clinic or in your home to look at how you are managing and what you can do now.
3. Together with your input, a personalized care plan is created based on your physician’s orders and your specific needs.
4. Your clinician explains visit frequency, what to expect going forward, and answers your questions.
5. We coordinate with your physician and any other providers so everyone is aligned on your plan of care.
