Mobile integrated health (MIH) and community paramedicine are emerging health care models that deliver health care outside of traditional settings like hospitals and clinics.

By delivering health care in homes and community settings using providers like community paramedics, there is an opportunity to help address growing workforce shortages, expand access to care and improve patient outcomes.

These paramedics provide basic and advanced care in the patient’s home, arrange scheduled physician visits, obtain needed services and equipment, and educate patients on how to better care for themselves.

She serves as the secretary of the MIH Subcommittee of the State EMS Advisory Council and is the lead planner for the Missouri EMS Conference & Expo.
