Senior-Savvy Primary Care
As you age, your physical health becomes more important. But it’s not the only aspect of well-being. Lifespark Primary Care uses a whole-person approach with senior-savvy expertise so we never lose sight of you and the life you want to live.
The expert medical care you need, right in your apartment
With Lifespark Primary Care services, you get in-home senior-savvy medical experts - nurse practitioners, physicians, and clinicians - who recenter the health care system around you. We’re the first to bring together the full spectrum of senior - often called geriatric - health services in a single, home-based experience to help you age magnificently.
Whole-person care
We support your life goals, not just your health concerns. By getting to know you inside and out, we can support you in living the most independent life possible — going far beyond the traditional medical provider experience.
Experts in geriatric care
You’ll get 24/7 access to specially-trained geriatric clinicians, along with routine and additional visits as needed. Our skillful team works with you to craft the right plan for you and your goals.
We come to you
Get greater control when our medical experts recenter the health care system around you for greater flexibility and convenience on your terms. Even labs and X-rays come right to your door.
Expert medication review
With in-depth knowledge on medications and guidance from specialized geriatric pharmacologists, we make sure you understand the medication trade-offs and navigate your options with confidence, especially when dealing with high-risk drugs.
Collaborative Medical Team...
...integrated with Your Community Health Team
Working together, residents are 55% less likely to need ER visits or an uneeded hospital stay.
Recentering health around you
With a more complete picture of you as a person, we’re able to integrate all aspects of your well-being, from medical information to the things that really matter – social connections, living with purpose, and love – into insights and options that support your overall health and goals.
Best of all, Lifespark Primary Care is affordable. It’s available at no additional cost under most Medicare and other health plans. Just like any clinic, co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles may apply.
Why Geriatrics Expertise Matters
Fewer than 10% of medical schools require a rotation in geriatrics. As a result, most primary care providers lack training in how your body changes as you age.
Growing older brings changes including chronic conditions, multiple medications, and even more doctors involved in your care. That’s a lot of complexity compounded by such realities as your body may not process meds in the same way as it did in your 40s.
You deserve specially trained experts who will understand your unique needs along with taking the time to get to know you and your personal goals.
That translates into more control for you, reduced stress on your family, added support, and most importantly, nothing getting in the way of you living every day to the fullest.
When You Need Urgent Support
A sudden concern? A question after hours? Different from most clinics, you get 24/7 RN Triage with five levels of response to quickly address sudden changes and concerns. There’s even an in-home urgent care option, which allows for quicker, more convenient response to health issues without the need for long waits in the emergency room.
Dr. Nick Schneeman
“Caring for seniors, especially the frail, requires an understanding of how the body ages but also what gives them purpose. Two people with the same health concerns may make very different choices — provided they’re heard, informed, and empowered to be who they are.
That’s what we teach all our clinicians with our specialized training program … because the care you receive should complement both your physical health and your purpose.”
