Home Response
Procare Home Response is the first company in the State of Maryland to be licensed to offer Mobile Integrated Health (MIH) services. MIH prevents unnecessary admissions and readmissions for high risk patients such as those diagnosed with Asthma, COPD, CHF, Diabetes, Pneumonia, or COVID-19. Through the use of technology Procare Home Response connects patient and physician to provide vital treatments in the home. Procare’s clinicians, available 24/7, are dispatched rapidly to the home to provide meaningful care including cardiac monitoring, chem8 laboratory results via i-STAT, administration of intravenous fluids and medications, wound care, foley cath care, breathing treatments and other treatments as directed by the hospital physician. Procare Home Response will improve our patients’ health status and experience of care in a cost-effective manner and help keep our patients out of the hospital.
