Welcome to the Chickasaw Nation Primary Care Clinic. We value you as a patient and look forward to serving you and your health needs. Our goal is to work together with you to facilitate a partnership to provide you with the best quality and comprehensive care.
Your health care team serves you by providing, overseeing and coordinating your overall wellness. Our objective is to replace episodic care based on symptoms and illnesses with coordinated, whole person care and long-term healing relationships. As our patient, you will have an ongoing relationship with our team, and we will take collective responsibility for your care.
As your personal health care team, our responsibilities are to:
- Explain diseases, treatment and results in an easy-to-understand way
- Listen to your concerns and questions which help us make decisions about your care
- Give you clear directions about treatment options available
- Make sure you have a clear understanding of treatment goals and future plans
As our patient, your responsibilities are to:
- Ask questions, share your feelings and take an active part in your care
- Be honest about your history, symptoms and other important information, including any changes in your health and well-being
- Take all of your medications as directed and communicate with your health care team if you feel changes are needed
- Inform us when there is a problem with the medication that you are taking
- Make healthy decisions about your daily habits and lifestyle
- Keep an open mind about suggestions to improve your health and well-being
- Keep your scheduled appointments or reschedule in advance whenever possible
The health and wellness of our patients is our focus and providing the best possible care to every patient is our primary goal. We can meet this goal if we work together.
