In 2010, it was estimated that 191,235 Lee County residents were living in low-income households, with more than 130,000 of them lacking access to primary health care services. In response to this acute community need, Lee Memorial Health System opened primary care clinics in the Dunbar and North Fort Myers communities during 2011 and later in Cape Coral. These locations provided more than 10,829 office visits to 4,165 uninsured and economically distressed residents of Lee County during 2013. In an effort to provide the highest quality of care possible patient care teams have been assembled consistent with a patient-centered medical home approach to providing primary care. Patient care teams are formed from clinical staff that includes physicians, advanced registered nurse practitioners, nurses, patient registration specialists, case managers, information referral specialists, chronic disease counselors and a nutritionist. Traditionally, community health centers and clinics have had to focus on moving the most patients through the “care process” as possible. However, at Lee Community Healthcare, we believe that time taken to listen to and empathize with our patients is time well spent. While some models of care call for 15 and 30 minute long appointments, Lee Community Healthcare has chosen to allow longer times for scheduled appointments in an effort to improve the quality of care provided and the bond between us and our patients.
