Home visits
Brandi is passionate about serving the greater Warsaw area and the Northern Neck, her home for over 30 years, where respiratory therapy, home health and pulmonary rehab services are scarce.
Evaluating the home environment and set up for you or your loved one is a valuable first step towards ensuring they are receiving the best possible care at home.
It takes time to educate patients and their caregivers, and there is no better place to do that education than at home where the patient lives and needs equipment to be set up. The goal is to optimize for quality of life and function in the home for patients and their caregivers and to sort out a plan given the availability of support from family and friends.
After consults or home visits, Brandi can communicate and coordinate patient needs with your primary care provider and/or specialists.
