At RHG, APP’s provide general and preventative care, conduct check-ups, diagnose and treat illnesses, order lab tests, and prescribe certain medication for our patients. RHG APP’s are more than just providers, they are mentors and educators, ultimately serving as champions for our patients. In this role, APP’s perform the very important function of educating our patients about preventative care and prescribed treatments.

RHG utilizes an integrated care delivery team-based approach in our clinics. Our APP’s are part of a care team that employs the use of front office administrative staff and Medical Assistants to deliver high quality primary care to rural and underserved communities.

· Collaborate with Medical Assistant to record patient histories and ensure medical records reflect symptoms, treatments, and administration of prescribed and over-the-counter medications
