The Importance of Continuity of Care
Continuity of care is a central component of the patient-centered medical home. There are many benefits to going to one place for all your child’s needs, whether for illness, behavioral health, sports physicals, or wellness checks. Here at Pediatric Associates, we pride ourselves in offering same day availability for illness 5 days a week at all three locations and on Saturdays at our Crestview Hills location.
Within our practice, you have many choices of providers, times and locations. There are situations where you will benefit by seeing the same provider for a given condition – such as for recurrent infections, weight or developmental checks, behavioral health issues, or chronic illness such as migraines, asthma, or abdominal pain.
When you schedule an appointment, please feel free to ask for a specific provider, especially if you have been working with them on a particular issue. This will enhance your experience and reduce redundant conversations. Our staff may encourage this when you call. Thank you for allowing us the privilege to help care for your children!
