Are you looking for more Patient Care Home Models?
Imagine not knowing who your parents’ primary care doctor is. As our population grows, this question has become more and more popular. Primary care is essential for good health and long life. However, life is already busy enough – juggling appointments, personal care, and business can feel overwhelming. But with the right tools, we can change the trajectory of our loved ones’ lives. We all want our parents to have access to the best care and opportunities possible. That’s why comprehensive care management is a must.
Every day, we strive to develop a medical home model that suits the needs of our aging population in the Cape Fear Region. This model is known as the Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) and it is based on several principles:
1. An ongoing relationship with a personal physician for first-contact, continuous, and comprehensive care.
2. A physician-directed team that collectively cares for the patient.
3. Whole-person orientation, including acute, chronic, preventive, and end-of-life care.
4. Accessible services that are coordinated and integrated across the healthcare system.
By adopting the PCMH model, you’ll ensure that working families can rest assured knowing that their loved ones’ care is person-centered, accessible, and safe.

Helping Hands of the Cape Fear is a women-owned business that was founded in Wilmington, NC, in 2016, providing homecare to the aging and disabled. As a Human Services Organization (HSO), Helping Hands is proud to partner with Community Care of Lower Cape Fear and provide services in a three-year pilot as part of Medicaid’s Healthy Opportunities Pilots (HOP) in the Cape Fear area. This pilot is sponsored by North Carolina’s Department of Health and Human Services and funded by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The CMS pilot aims to test “evidence-based, non-medical interventions designed to improve health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs for a subset of Medicaid enrollees.” Helping Hands continues to serve in the healthcare and advocacy arena and is open to collaborating with your business.
Remember, “We are what our community needs.”
