Community Paramedicine

Paramedics posing around a carCommunity Paramedicine (CP) is a community-based care model where paramedics work outside their normal emergency response role to provide preventive and follow-up care to people in their homes or skilled care facilities. CP paramedics proactively focus on assisting people with regaining optimal well-being outside the hospital setting.

Our program assigns a Community Paramedic, who is a Parkview co-worker, to provide ongoing care to select patients.

The Community Paramedicine program provides:

  • In-home visits, which help us get to know you and your unique situation
  • A healthcare advocate who listens to you or your family’s concerns
  • A professional to make you aware of available resources
  • Assistance with home safety
  • Medication organization
  • Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse and oxygen level)

Parkview Community Paramedics have years of experience and training and were chosen to provide the care and support for your continued health.
