CenterWell Senior Primary Care to Open Four Senior-Focused Care Centers in South Louisiana

Business Wire
CenterWell Senior Primary Care will open four new senior-focused
care centers in South Louisiana by early 2022, giving seniors in
Denham Springs, Hammond, Covington, Slidell and surrounding areas
access to CenterWell’s personalized, care-team approach to
healthcare.
CenterWell Senior Primary Care is one of the fastest-growing
senior-focused, value-based care providers in the country,
delivering care to approximately 57,000 patients in its more than
65 centers, with continuous growth plans. CenterWell opened 15 new
centers in the past year, and up to 20 are expected to open this
year.
“We do things a little differently from the traditional
primary-care center,” said Brienne Loy, M.D., primary care Regional
Medical Director for Louisiana. “Rather than a transactional model
of healthcare, in which a healthcare professional treats one
specific condition, we take a more holistic view, in which we
assess all of the patient’s needs, including their emotional
wellbeing, their access to food and transportation and other
factors that can affect their health. Then we develop a plan to
address each of those needs.”
Each new CenterWell Senior Primary Care location in South
Louisiana will be staffed by board-certified physicians and nurses,
and patients will have access to clinical pharmacists, behavioral
health specialists and social workers, who have been specially
trained to treat the senior population. CenterWell is planning to
hire approximately 30 employees overall, and all positions offer
competitive salaries and benefits.
New centers scheduled to open between September and December
include these locations:
Covington 66 Park Place Covington, LA 70433
Denham Springs 2314 S. Range Avenue Denham Springs, LA
70726
Hammond 2240 W Thomas Street Hammond, LA 70471
A fourth area center is planned for Slidell in early 2022, with
an address to be announced later.
The new CenterWell facilities are looking to fill the following
positions as soon as possible with qualified candidates.
- Area Medical Director
- Primary Care Physicians
- Physicians Nurse Practitioner or Physicians Assistants
- Medical Assistant
- RN Care Coaches
- Certified Coders
- Front Office Medical Record Clerks
