Access Healthcare Associates

A Unique Geriatric Multi-Specialty Practice

 

Access Healthcare Associates’ goal is to serve as the necessary bridge to bring to seniors quality and timely medical care in their place of residence. We are committed to improving the quality and scope of medical care provided to the elderly population by providing house calls.

 

Much like the physicians of yesteryear, the practitioners at AHA bring medical services to the home environment. Our reach is broad, and we see patients in the following locations: skilled nursing facility, nursing home, independent/assisted living, residential care facility, board and care, and traditional homes. 

 

We have taken the age-old concept of house calls one step further, however, and we have crafted a unique delivery system and multi-disciplinary team approach with practitioners specifically trained in geriatric medicine. This is the field of medicine devoted to the senior population (generally 65 years and older).

 

We make every effort to make our patients and family members feel comfortable and secure by developing a personal relationship with each patient and giving them the time and attention that they deserve.
