Program Information
Are you a Nurse Practitioner who has ever wondered how to start a Housecall Practice? Have you ever wondered how to get paid from making Housecalls? Have you ever just wanted to know incorporate HIT (Health Information Technology) into a Housecall Practice? If you answered “Yes” to any of the aforementioned questions, then, The Housecalls Residency Program at Advanced Clinical Consultants, by Dr. Scharmaine Lawson-Baker, NP is the program for you. The Housecalls Residency Program was designed to equip nurse practitioners with essential skills necessary for starting a Housecall practice. The nurse practitioner will obtain critical knowledge on how to incorporate Housecalls into an already existing medical practice or learn how to start an independent Housecall practice. The goal of the Housecall Residency is to equip the nurse practitioner with all necessary tools to establish a successful Housecall practice.

This program is approved for 16 contact hour(s) of continuing education by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. Program ID 0908276
Cost: The seminar costs $1,100 (including $100 registration fee) per participant for the two day course.
The two-day format will be as follows: The course will be offered on a Friday and Saturday of each month. In January & March, we will have two courses. On the Friday course dates, it will be a classroom day and on the Saturday course dates, it will be an actual Housecall day. Each day will be 8 hours which will give you the 16 hour credits from AANP.
Due to the nature of the Housecall, I can only accommodate two NP's at a time. This will bring the total to three people entering a person's home. Most of the patients surveyed for the Housecall program said that three is the maximum amount of visitors at any time from Home Health that they would be able to comfortably accommodate in their home.
