Adult

Chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes and asthma can frequently be controlled. Our medical provider team will first work with you to prevent the condition. Nutrition counseling, food preparation education, and an increase in exercise and physical activity might be enough to improve your health. For others there may also be a need for medication to help regulate the condition to improve how you feel.

For our adult patients, a thorough examination will be done to identify any concerns. This may include lab studies or x-ray. From this assessment you and your provider will develop a treatment plan and schedule follow-up appointments.

Many conditions can be treated if they are found early. Therefore, both women and men need to schedule and keep routine appointments for necessary evaluations.

Maintaining good oral health can also help prevent or control many common chronic conditions. We encourage you to also schedule an examination with our dental provider.

Geriatric

HCHC providers offer geriatric assessments which consists of a comprehensive evaluation designed to optimize an older person’s ability to enjoy good health, improve their overall quality of life, reduce the need for hospitalization and/or institutionalization, and enable them to live independently for as long as possible.

HCHC Geriatric patients also benefit from our on-site pharmacy and Medicine Assistance Programs.
