Gail Coup - I really love staying in my house but I have macular degeneration, COPD, chronic heart failure, and asthma, and it's really hard for me to get out for a doctor's appointment. I was so happy to find out about Summa's house calls program.

Linda Raider is a nurse practitioner that usually comes to my house. She checks my vitals, she checks my lymphedema, and she orders my medicine. She knows her business and she's really on the ball. I can get blood tests at home and also portable X-rays like for my chest. They have a social worker, and she helped me get discounts on my medications.

I really believe in the house calls program, because it helps so many people. I can have a better quality of life and stay in my home. It's just number one.
