Health In Place
Meeting Patients Where They Are
Health In Place is the unifying concept that our healthcare system should meet patients where, when, and how they need us.
Care delivery extends beyond the walls of our hospitals and medical offices. We must redesign todays’ care models with a consumer focus to improve patient health and quality of life.

Vision for Patient Care
Vituity has been designing care delivery around patients for more over 50 years. From in-person physician care to AI-powered clinical chatbots, we are committed to delivering, supporting, and re-engineering care to meet patients when, where, and how they need us. Our culture of innovation is rooted in the deep clinical expertise of 5,000 practicing providers who deliver care every day — and are individually empowered to redesign care delivery systems. This is our vision of Health In Place.
“The future of healthcare delivery exists at the intersection of medicine, health systems and technology where care is delivered to patients on their terms.”
- Denise Brown, MD
Vituity Chief Growth Officer
Health In Place Pillars
Patient-Centered Quality
To patients, quality means much more than turnaround times and readmission rates. Health is about aging at home, exceling at work, and playing pick-up basketball with the kids. Health systems must measure success on both clinical outcomes and quality of life. This means addressing—perhaps for the first time—the social barriers to care our patients face.
Spotlight: EmPATH Units
Vituity EmPATH Units offer prompt acute behavioral care in a calming outpatient setting that is more conducive to healing than a traditional ED, while still meeting all the patients’ emergent needs.
- 80% of EmPATH patients are stabilized and discharged to a lower level of care within 24 hours.
Evolved Care Team
Regardless of care setting, a sustainable model that force-multiplies teams and technologies allow specialists to have the greatest impact, and addresses physician shortages. Telehealth, remote monitoring, and mobile and in-person care teams bring this approach to life when synergized with streamlined communication and actionable, real-time data.
Spotlight: Scaling Critical Care
Vituity’s unique teleICU model allows a dedicated intensivist team to manage critical care across multiple hospital sites. This hub-and-spoke approach eliminates operational and financial barriers and meets the demand for local ICU’s with timely, equitable, and quality acute care.
- Integrated Hub & Spoke programs help health systems meet critical emergency benchmarks while driving substantial cost savings in staffing.
Care Without Boundaries
As healthcare becomes less linked to physical places, the patient’s journey must be integrated, continuous, and equitable. We must find sustainable ways to extend care to patients where they need us most.
Spotlight: Street Medicine
- Vituity’s street medicine teams deliver primary and urgent care services directly to patients experiencing homelessness. These teams forge trusting relationships and directly address health disparities by providing medical and social assistance.
- Vituity supports unhoused communities with street medicine teams in 5 major cities.
