Home Visits

What are home visits?

Home visits are a health service offered at Arbor Vitae Holistic Medical Center. Instead of you coming into the office, your provider at the practice comes to you. This isn’t a virtual visit, it’s an in-person appointment in your home. 

Home visits give your provider a better sense of your overall health. During a home visit, you may feel more relaxed and open to sharing your concerns. It also gives your provider a chance to see how you live, helping them create a wellness plan that truly fits your lifestyle.

The team at Arbor Vitae Holistic Medical Center serves as your health care partner. Instead of prescribing medications and sending you on your way, they work with you, giving you the tools and support you need to manage your health and wellness. 

Home visits also improve the patient-provider relationship.

Arbor Vitae Holistic Medical Center provides home visits for newborn primary care. 

What happens during home visits?

The details of your home visit from the team at Arbor Vitae Holistic Medical Center depend on your needs. However, you can expect the same attentive care you get at the office.

Your provider reviews concerns and completes a physical exam. They may also take measurements like your weight, blood pressure, and heart rate. For newborns, the team measures weight, length, and head circumference.

Your provider spends time talking to you about your health, offering guidance, and making recommendations. 

For parents of newborns, your provider answers any questions you have and may use your home to show you how to feed, change, bathe, and swaddle your baby.

Home visits are one of the tools the Arbor Vitae Holistic Medical Center team uses to empower you to take charge of your health and wellness.
