Before, in the primary nurse model, the nurse did much of the patient’s care. In a team model, the nurses oversee the care by unlicensed assistive personnel.

I really feel that home care, non-medical home care is a linchpin to success for many models that are being explored currently by payers.

PRO-TIP : If your patient is in the nursing home, call the family and invite them to be present during your visit! For instance, you should use simple language that the patient and family members can understand. Ask yourself these questions: What other resources could you have included in the patient’s care?
