Care Response In the News
Article excerpt from Abec's Small Business Review, Ann Arbor Edition
"With a history in healthcare that started at the age of 16, Valerie has come a long way to realize her goals of truly being a caregiver and advocate for the sick and injured. Raised in a small town by parents who taught her how to be a part of her community and think of the bigger picture, Valerie has put the principles and values she learned to good use. She has also managed to surround herself with a phenomenal staff, who she said help her do the work she does by being “like-minded visionaries.”
Partnering With Your Health Care System
Health care is not the same as it was fifty years ago. Many things have improved, but the personal touch of medicine has been lost in the process. Medical science has made tremendous advances in the treatment of heart disease, cancer, infectious disease and diabetes just to name a few - but these advances have come at a cost. According to the World Health Organization, the United States spends a higher portion of its gross domestic product than any other country but ranks 37th in performance.
Personal health care responsibility where each individual assumes responsibility for his or her health can alleviate many of the problems with the current health care system. Our office receives calls daily asking how to navigate the maze of particulars with a given diagnosis, treatment, medication, provider or facility. Making informed decisions is the first step in becoming your own or a loved one's advocate.Take charge of your health care!
Care & Connecting
Our pride of service combined with the skill, warmth, and openness of our staff is the catalyst behind our ability to provide excellent care, and create real connections.
4 Words
At Care Response, we're guided in everything we do by four simple words: Listen, Plan, Educate, Serve. They are not big or fancy words, but they form the core of our methodology and our outlook.
