Meet Chad Springer, the Executive Director of the Family Health Clinic! Chad brings with him experience and a passion for community healthcare that aligns perfectly with our mission. Get to know him better by reading about his education, work experience, and our interview with him in the blog below.
The Family Health Clinic was only located in Delphi Courthouse Square. Dr. Brian Doggett of IU Health serves as the first Collaborative Practice Physician. The first grant was awarded by Indiana Department of Health (IDOH). Patients pay on a cash-only basis.Â
We believe all individuals in the communities we serve should have access to quality health care.
The Family Health Clinic, a Federally Qualified Health Center, provides top quality accessible and affordable primary health care, in an environment that supports the education of future health care professionals.
The Family Health Clinic of Carroll County was launched in 1995 by Dr. Jo Brooks, a Purdue University School of Nursing professor, to provide quality primary healthcare to individuals who were unable to obtain care due to financial or access challenges.
The Family Health Clinic staff began seeing patients in a 500-square-foot space on the Delphi Courthouse Square. In 1998, the clinic moved to Brosman Center on Route 421.Â
The Family Health Clinic then expanded, opening a satellite location in Monon, Indiana in 2006. In 2008 the Delphi Clinic moved and has been housed at the Brooks Center at 901 Prince William Road, Delphi.
In 2009, a non-profit organization, North Central Nursing Clinics, partnered with Purdue School of Nursing to secure federal funding from HRSA (Health Resources & Services Administration) for the Family Health Clinics of Carroll County and Monon as a Federally Qualified Health Center.Â
In June 2014 the Family Health Clinic received the National Committee for Quality Assurance Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) Level 2 Designation. The Clinic also provides training opportunities for more than 30 Purdue School of Nursing students throughout the year as well as Purdue College of Pharmacy Fellows and Interns at each site.
Today, there are four sites. The Family Health Clinic of Burlington opened in January of 2016 and the Family Health Clinic of Wolcott opened in July 2016.
By the end of 2020, we anticipate treating over 8,400 individuals per year during 24,000 visits with a medical or behavioral health provider. Â
The Family Health Clinic participates in the Breast and Cervical Cancer Program (BCCP). They also offer Medication Assistance Programs (MAP) that allow qualified patients to apply to pharmaceutical companies to request prescription medications at little or no cost.
The Family Health Clinic is a Health Resources and Services Administration health center and was awarded their Health Center Quality Leader Designation in 2019.
HRSA-funded health centers continue to lead the U.S. healthcare system in providing quality, value-based care to their communities. HRSA’s Quality Improvement Awards recognize the work that health centers do to address health priorities by designating health centers that ranked in the top 30% that achieve the best overall clinical performance receive designation as Health Center Quality Leaders.Â
These awards also recognize health center achievements in other areas, including improving cost-efficient care delivery while also increasing quality of care, reducing health disparities, increasing both the number of patients served and patients’ ability to access comprehensive services, advancing the use of health information technology, and delivering patient-centered care.
The patient-centered medical home is a model of care that puts patients at the forefront. PCMHs build better relationships between patients and their clinical care teams.
PCMHs are committed to quality and quality improvement by ongoing engagement in activities such as using evidence-based medicine and clinical decision-support tools to guide shared decision-making with patients and families.
Research shows that PCMHs improve quality and the patient experience, and increase staff satisfaction—while reducing health care costs. Practices that earn recognition have committed to continuous quality improvement and a patient-centered approach to care.
