Curana Health, a leading provider of value-based care for senior living residents, is teaming up with Watermark Retirement Communities to offer onsite medical clinics and in-home healthcare services.
"Watermark is very focused on establishing strategic partnerships with groups who are aligned with our values, vision and high standards," said David Barnes, chief executive officer and president of Watermark. "Watermark's strategic partnership with Curana Health is such a partnership, offering our residents and their families an option for convenient and coordinated physician-led care that integrates with our clinical staff to provide enhanced communication and support."
Services include concierge-style access to preventative care, sick visits, lab work, wound care, and blood pressure clinics. Curana Health also coordinates care with residents' current specialists and other care teams. In addition, they offer 24/7 access to advanced practice providers who specialize in geriatric care.
"We're thrilled to work with Watermark and provide value-based care to their residents," said Chris Dawe, President of Curana Health's medical group. "Our unique model takes their members' overall health and wellness into consideration, with a focus on providing proactive care and reducing unnecessary hospitalizations."
Six onsite clinics are now open in Watermark communities in Florida, Texas, and Pennsylvania with approximately 10 additional openings anticipated in the coming months.
