Reinventing the healthcare experience for people 65 so they can live well and thrive.
About us
We believe everyone should have the opportunity to live their best lives and age with dignity. That’s why we’re reinventing the healthcare and aging experience for older adults and their loved ones through age-friendly care and navigation support that addresses total health and well-being. Our technology-enabled care model is centered around the unique needs and values of adults 65 and older, who deserve an experience that is human, personalized and easily accessible. We meet people on their terms, with comprehensive and convenient in-home and virtual care options that eliminate the frustration of rushed and transactional office visits. Each person we serve gets a dedicated care team built around them. Led by a primary care physician, the team includes a nurse practitioner, a health champion and specialized team members who can support the individual’s total medical, emotional, social and logistical care needs. Individuals can choose to make their family and loved ones part of their care team, too. We’re fiercely determined to improve the care experience for older adults. As we grow, we need more mission-driven people with the drive, passion, skills and audacity to help us change healthcare for good. Now’s a great time to join us!

Every day, we’re humbled by the positive patient feedback we receive. Take Carol Lowe, a self-described “fussy patient” with a complex medical history, who was in search of a new primary care provider. Since becoming a Patina patient, she has been impressed by her dedicated Patina team, who respect her preferences and values. We asked if Carol would share more about her experience. Here’s what else she has to say: https://bit.ly/46VUuFE

Looking to take better care of himself after his wife’s sudden passing nearly two years ago, Arun turned to Patina as his primary care provider. Connected via phone, video, mobile app, and in-person visits, he’s surrounded by a Care Team that understands his needs – and is with him whether he’s at home or on the go. Our crew is inspired by patients like Arun, who have embraced Patina’s model of age-friendly primary care and personalized support for care coordination and navigation.

“I feel seen and secure that Patina will be there when I need them.” We’re reinventing the healthcare and aging experience for people 65 and older – like Dave, a retired maintenance manager who enjoys an active lifestyle that includes creating art, fishing with his brothers, and leading a local charity that supports underprivileged teens and adolescents. Looking for a more personalized approach where his care team was really listening to him and addressing his needs, Dave turned to Patina and now receives care on his terms through a mix of in-home visits, phone check-ins, and the Patina mobile app. Read more about Dave and how age-friendly, comprehensive primary care meets the needs of his lifestyle: https://bit.ly/3A1iNWB

“This is such a different experience than I’ve had in the past. I feel like the whole team knows me and has my best interests at heart.” The Patina primary care experience puts people 65 at the center of a team devoted to helping them live and age well. This experience comes to life in our care for Phyllis, a retired math teacher who leads an active life and strives to give back to others. A lifelong swimmer and exercise enthusiast, Phyllis suffered a stroke a few years ago and relied on her Patina care team to support her recovery – a genuine relationship that continues today as her health needs evolve. We’re honored to support Phyllis and help her live her best life. Read her full story here: https://bit.ly/3RXqzGZ

As we celebrate the resilience, diversity, and achievements of the LGBTQ community during Pride Month, Patina has been shining a light on the unique healthcare needs of older LGBTQ adults. This group often faces distinct challenges, including discrimination, social isolation, and a lack of culturally competent healthcare. 🏥It's crucial to ensure that our healthcare systems are inclusive and affirming, providing the specialized care and support older LGBTQ adults deserve. We are advocates for compassionate, comprehensive care for ALL through an approach that addresses the medical, emotional and social care needs of our patients – and takes into account each person’s unique values, goals and preferences. Read the Patina blog for insight on how to ensure our older LGBTQ friends and family receive the respect and healthcare they deserve. 🏳️🌈💖 https://bit.ly/4cMUTw7 #PrideMonth #LGBTQHealth #InclusiveCare #SupportOurElders #HealthcareEquality

“While these individuals face the same issues as many others who are aging – social isolation, loneliness, housing affordability, and ageism – research shows they have additional concerns that can take a toll on health and wellness.” – Marilynn Larkin, M.A., in an article in the Journal of Active Aging. By 2030, it’s estimated that there will be 7 million U.S. adults 65 and older who identify as LGBTQ, and the numbers this number will continue to grow exponentially – yet there is almost no information on aging in the community. What we do know is that older adults who are LGBTQ face many barriers when it comes to accessing healthcare, such as a history of discrimination, low rates of health insurance coverage, and disproportionate rates of HIV/AIDs, mental health issues, and chronic physical conditions. The LGBTQ community matters. Organizations like SAGE’s National Resource Center on LGBT Aging was created to address the unique needs of this vibrant and resilient community.
