Mercer
Health Disease Management Clinic
Encouraging healthy behaviors for a healthy lifestyle. Being
diagnosed with a chronic disease is hard enough. Making healthy
lifestyle changes is even harder. The Mercer Health people-centered
approach ensures that the participant is at the center
of all that we do. Our counseling
model is designed to meet people where they are in the healthcare
continuum and help them move forward to meet mutually
agreed upon goals.
We engage the individual; we don't just treat the disease.
We strive to provide every participant with the support and
advocacy they need. At the same time, we understand the real
and emotional challenges that often accompany the most prevalent
conditions such heart disease and diabetes. To help participants
achieve real and lasting lifestyle changes for better health,
the counseling process starts with a recognition of what
makes each chronic disease and, more importantly, each individual
unique.
Straight from the heart, we are a company of compassionate
clinicians. Our greatest reward is the improved health and
well being of our participants. Our multi-disciplinary clinicians
work with each participant. They listen, motivate, advocate,
educate, and even laugh and cry together with participants
in their individual journeys to better health.
Mission:
The purpose of Mercer Health Home Care is to provide a vision
of a better care system and an intention to change the
current health system. We utilize a disease management
system that focuses on the relief of all types of suffering
( physical, psychological, social, and spiritual) caused
by life-changing illnesses and their treatments. Disease
management begins at the time of diagnosis of a chronic
illness and continues through the entire disease process. The
goal of Home Care is to achieve and maintain the highest
quality of life possible for patients and their families.
