Primary Care that Comes to You
Primary Care for people living in Independent and Assisted Facilities
We make regularly scheduled trips to partner facilities for in-person patient care and offer virtual visits to address urgent issues that arise when we are offsite.
Primary Care for people and families living in private homes
We are pleased to offer care for people and families at home. These openings are limited to ensure quality and availability of care. Contact us to join the wait list for private home care.
Medical Director services for Senior Living Facilities
We serve several senior living facilities in Birmingham and Central Alabama. Administrators may request a meeting to discuss how Home Team supports health and well-being at your facility.
Our Mission
Home Team makes it easy for people to connect with the care they need.
Our Services
Team Based Care
Working in teams allows us to respond to your needs more quickly and makes in-person primary care possible in places where it is not otherwise available. Your team includes you, preferred family members, other medical teams involved in your care, Home Team medical support staff, a dedicated nurse practitioner (NP) or physician assistant (PA) serving the role of Primary Care Provider (PCP), and medical doctor (MD) serving the role of Attending Physician.
Relationships
Getting to know you as a person is the first step to providing compassionate care. Our team structure allows your PCP to budget more time for developing and enjoying personal relationships with you and your family. Your attending physician supports your PCP by advising on challenging medical problems and advocating for you when we need help from doctors and institutions outside of our practice to coordinate your care needs.
Flexible Solutions
We use modern technology and flexible business models to create personalized solutions for patients and their families, regardless of insurance barriers. To avoid the frustration of playing phone tag, we offer several ways to contact our medical team including phone, text messaging, secure web portal, and other secure messaging services. We also offer competitive cash rates when insurance doesn't cover tests and other services you want.
Supported Staff
Medical teams provide better care when the people on those teams aren't burned out or stretched too thin. We support our staff with respectful employment arrangements and the best available tools for their job. Working in teams also means we can help each other out and cover for a friend when life events require them to step away from work for a period of time, without causing disruptions in their patient's care.
Conditions Treated
We manage all general primary care, including but not limited to problems with blood sugar (diabetes mellitus), blood pressure (hypertension), cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), heart disease, lung disease, arthritis, intestinal disorders, and general sick visits.
