What is primary care?

Primary care is the foundation of healthcare, focusing on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide range of health conditions. It’s typically the first point of contact for patients, providing comprehensive and continuous care over time. 

At Initiare Healthcare Services, Evette Facey, NP, offers routine checkups, screenings, immunizations, and guidance on maintaining overall health. She also coordinates with specialists if you need more complex care. 

The goal of primary care is to address your immediate health concerns while preventing future problems, making it essential to long-term wellness.

Why is it so important to have a primary care practitioner?

A primary care professional can help you maintain good health and catch potential issues early. 

Evette builds a relationship with you by learning about your medical history, lifestyle, and unique health needs. This familiarity allows her to offer personalized care and help you make informed decisions about your treatment. 

Regular visits via telehealth help identify risk factors, manage chronic conditions, and detect diseases before they become serious. Evette also serves as a guide through the healthcare system, referring you to specialists when necessary and ensuring that all aspects of your health are addressed in a coordinated way.

Without a primary care practitioner, health concerns can go unnoticed or untreated, leading to more serious issues down the road. Regular checkups and open communication with your healthcare professional can significantly improve your health outcomes and quality of life.

What health issues does primary care address?

Primary care covers a broad spectrum of health concerns, from everyday issues to more complex, ongoing conditions. Common areas include preventive care, such as vaccinations, screenings for conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, and health education on nutrition and exercise. Primary care also addresses acute illnesses, such as infections, injuries, and respiratory conditions.

In addition to managing chronic diseases like asthma, diabetes, and heart disease, your primary care practitioner offers mental health support, helping with conditions such as anxiety and depression. They also guide you about how to maintain healthy lifestyle habits and offer a holistic approach to your overall well-being.
