Transitioning to a skilled care, long-term care, assisted living or independent living facility does not mean you have to leave your primary care provider.
Mercy Geriatrics care providers can see you if your MercyCare family doctor cannot, maintaining communication with your healthcare team.
What Does Mercy Geriatrics Do?
- Provide primary care services in skilled care, long-term care, assisted living and independent living facilities
- Provide acute care and regulatory visits to these facilities (on-call 24/7)
- Collaborate with the facility, Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), and palliative care and hospice teams for expanded support
