Thank you for choosing Family Medicine Mountain View to meet your healthcare needs. Family Practice (also called Family Medicine) doctors treat patients of all ages and provide services ranging from preventive care to sick care.

Our desire is to offer complete, expert care whenever you and your family need it. Your doctor or another Mountain View partner is always on call if you have an after-hours problem. If the problem does not require immediate care and you would prefer to see your doctor, we will schedule an appointment for you for the first available time.

Complementing our team is a physician assistant who provide comprehensive health care to both adults and children. The physician assistant performs health assessments and diagnoses, conducts physical examinations, orders lab work and X-rays, prescribes medication, coordinates treatment plans and makes referrals. They also educate patients and their families to promote wellness, maintain health and intervene in the event of acute or chronic illness.

If you need to visit a specialist, your doctor will help you obtain a referral. That way, the specialist will have the benefit of your medical records to assist in your health care.

Mountain View uses electronic medical records, which permit access to your records from many areas of the hospital and from many physician offices. This information helps us manage your care efficiently, promptly and securely.

Also, provide the telephone number for your pharmacy in case a prescription is needed.

Patient Centered Medical Home

What is a patient centered medical home?

A “medical home” is a medical office or clinic where a team of healthcare professionals works together to provide comprehensive primary care. “ Patient-Centered” is our way of saying that you are the most important person when it comes to your health care and that the healthcare team focuses on you to provide the best care possible. As a patient-centered medical home, we pride in offering the best care based on the lasts technology and evidence-based research.

What does a medical home look like?

A patient-centered medical home provides care for the whole person. Your care is personalized, coordinated and delivered by the medical team. Our primary goal is to improve access to primary care for adults, youth ands children. A patient-centered medical home achieves this goal while producing significant health benefits through prevention and wellness.

A patient-centered medical home also provides care that is appropriate based on your culture and language needs. This approach improves access by making it easier to communicate about complex health issues with providers who understand your linguistic and cultural framework.>

Your care Team

Your team will include a personal physician that will be responsible for your continuous and comprehensive care. This physician will lead the team of other medical professionals who collectively are responsible for your ongoing care. Your medical team will help coordinate your care across all aspects of the healthcare system, ensuring that you get the proper personalized care when and where you need it.

Your caregivers will…

• Take personal responsibility for your ongoing care
• Get to know you and your health history and suggest treatments that make sense for you
• Make sure that you understand your health condition(s) and how to best take care of yourself
• Encourage you to ask questions and make sure you know and understand all of your options for care.
• Coordinate your care across different settings, including specialist and hospital care.
• Use the latest technology and evidence-based medical approaches.
• Focus on preventive care and conduct regular checkups to help you stay healthy
• Help you make healthy lifestyle decisions and provide support for you in the self-management of your health.

Your role as a patient

As a patient, you and your healthcare are the center of your medical home team. Here is what you can do to get the most out of your health care.

Communicate with your team

• Ask questions and tell your medical home team when you don’t understand something
• Tell your team about your health history, including other healthcare professionals who care for you, so they can help coordinate the best care possible.
• Talk openly with your team about your feelings about the care they are providing so that they can make it better.

Take care of your health

• Know that you are a full partner in your own healthcare.
• Learn about your condition and what you can do to stay as healthy as possible
• Follow the healthcare plan that you and your team have worked out
• Set goals that you can reach: Talk to your team about adding new goals when you see results.

Speak up

• Tell your team if you are having trouble sticking with your care plan: Ask questions about what you can do to get better results.
• Tell your team if you feel your care plan is not working: Work together to make changes if necessary

For your medical team to best serve you, it is important that you provide comprehensive information about your health history. A health history includes information such as visits to specialists, medical or surgical procedures, health status, recent test results, self-care information and records from any recent hospitalization, specialty care or ER visits. Patients should bring in any medications they take to each appointment. This information will help your care team coordinate the best care possible for you.
