Patient-Focused HealthCare

An Holistic approach to healthcare

We’re excited to bring innovative, patient-focused care to our private and corporate clients. For all patients, their families, and corporate workforce members, the relationships forged with our nurses is central to the quality of their healthcare experience.

Often described as an extension of patient-centered care, our patient-focused care recognises that patients’ medical needs are best understood and addressed in the context of their entire lives, including their life goals and social, economic, emotional, and spiritual functioning. This can mean putting the person’s needs, as they define them, above those identified as priorities by healthcare professionals.

XtendedCARE is constantly expanding its ability to care for clients as whole persons, not just as patients or work place member, with sensitivity to nonmedical factors in planning and delivering care.

Thanks again for an awesome start to this very dynamic situation. The nurse is doing an impeccable job. He really is perfect for this situation, and you have obviously done an excellent job to assess our needs so accurately.

Kurt, Father has Dementia
My caregiver is very calm. She has a lot of patience with me and together, we have fun and share a lot of laughs. She makes things easier for me. We talk, play cards, go out for lunch, and do things that my husband hates to do, like shopping. My caregiver helps me a lot.
