We care for individual's health and health care by employing the following Organize, Inform and Empower strategies and solutions in order to keep you, and any of your health problems or concerns, from falling through the cracks.

Organize: Your first line of defense against medical error is your own accurate medical information. Medical errors account for as many as 100,000 deaths each year. The effectiveness of a patient's care and the outcome of even seemingly minor medical procedures depend on accurate information.

Overuse, under use, and misuse of drugs have all been linked to serious health problems, disabilities, hospitalizations, and death. Researchers estimated that as many as 27.6% of adverse drug events are preventable. We consolidate a reference list of your prescription medicine, over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, supplements and alternative remedies or treatments and ensure that none of them are directly counter-indicated. As your health plan changes, we update your report when you tell us.

Inform: As your patient advocate, MY NURSE FIRST bridges the gap between Patient and Healthcare Provider. We ensure patient understanding of diagnoses and procedures, thereby reducing fear and increasing patient compliance, which results in a higher percentage of successful treatment.

We will review your past medical events, family health history and inform you on your current health concerns.

You have options. We can help identify your options and help determine which is best for you.

We will listen to you. Let us know what you want and we will help you find the best outcome for you.

We will help you understand your health care coverage, ensure that you receive all services due you, and that you pay only your appropriate deductibles and fees.

Empower: Many patients and their families, when faced with a sudden or prolonged illness, can be overwhelmed with the information provided. Despite the best intentions and good medical care, practitioners may not have the time or bedside manner to speak plainly about a patient's care. Your Advocate can provide details, additional information, and guidance in making the choices most right for you. We work with your care providers and help you serve as the leader of your health care team.

FACT: A confident and relaxed patient heals more rapidly. When you are an active member of your team, your results will improve.
