Our Family Medicine and department offers a new care model, Shared Care Teams, to provide team-based care for patients.

The goal of TVC’s Shared Care Teams is to provide both quality and timely care for immediate and ongoing patient needs. Under this new model, a patient may be scheduled to see the PA or ANP for non-complex or follow-up visits, allowing the primary care physician to see patients with chronic or more complex issues.

By working as a team, TVC will reduce the wait time for appointments and be more responsive to patient needs. Through collaboration and dedicated time to communicate patient plans, the Shared Care Teams can provide quality care in a timely manner, ultimately leading to a better patient experience.
