A Quick Guide on our Senior Strong Services
What Medical Services Are Provided in Assisted Living Facilities?
Our Senior Strong Program is more than just in-home visits—it's a comprehensive model designed to meet the unique needs of older adults in residential care.
Additional services are available through our concierge membership for families and facilities seeking an elevated level of access and support.
- Onsite Primary Care Services in Assisted Living Communities - We provide routine well and sick visits—just like a traditional general practitioner visit, but without leaving home.
- Same Business Day Response to Urgent Needs - Our team is committed to addressing urgent concerns on the same business day. While same-day visits are available, they may incur an additional fee depending on the situation.
- Medication Management and Care Coordination for Assisted Living Residents - We handle medication adjustments, appointment scheduling, and coordination with specialists—so your team or family doesn't have to.
- In-Home Lab and Imaging Services Covered by Insurance - Third-party partners provide onsite lab collection and imaging services, typically covered by insurance for added convenience.
- After-Hours Medical Access for Seniors - Patients and partners benefit from extended access to providers, offering added peace of mind outside regular hours.
- Concierge-Level Senior Medical Services (Optional) - For families or communities seeking premium access, our concierge membership includes priority scheduling, direct provider communication, and real-time updates through our secure portal.
How Does Senior Strong Compare to Traditional Primary Care for Seniors?
Unlike standard clinic-based care, the Senior Strong Program brings medical services to the residence—offering more time, attention, and oversight than typical in-office visits. Here’s how we stand apart:
- No travel is required for appointments
- Longer, unrushed visits with more face time
- Direct provider access—no answering services or long waits
- Onsite diagnostics like labs and imaging
- Family communication via a secure portal
- Responsive care for urgent concerns
This model leads to better health outcomes, reduced hospital visits, and increased satisfaction for both residents and families.
How Do Families Benefit from Onsite Primary Care in Assisted Living?
When your loved one moves into assisted living, your focus should be on spending quality time together, not managing appointments. Senior Strong allows families to return to their role as loved ones instead of full-time care coordinators.
Driving around Baton Rouge can be stressful, and coordinating care only adds to that. With our model, the provider comes directly to your loved one, making access easier and reducing stress. We handle the medical needs so you can focus on being present.
How Do Assisted Living Facilities Benefit from Onsite Medical Services?
Neighborhood Health partners with Assisted Living and Memory Care communities to improve care for residents and ease the demands on staff.
Facilities that participate in Senior Strong gain:
- Reliable access to experienced providers
- Faster response times for medical concerns
- Help with medication orders and care planning
- Fewer ER trips and hospitalizations
- Improved family communication and satisfaction
We collaborate with hospice, home health, therapy services, and more to ensure wraparound care that supports your entire team.
Does Insurance Cover Onsite Medical Visits in Assisted Living?
Yes. Medicare and most commercial insurance plans cover eligible services like wellness exams and sick visits.
Please note: We are not currently in-network with Medicaid.
What's the Cost for Concierge Senior Care in Assisted Living?
Our concierge-level services are optional and available for those seeking enhanced access and added convenience:
- Monthly or quarterly membership fees starting at $175/month
- Discounts available for quarterly billing
- Additional costs may apply for urgent same-day visits or expanded services
These fees support elevated service options that go beyond what’s covered by traditional insurance—giving residents and families access to faster responses and more personalized care.
