DR. MICHAEL OTTNEY

Carthage, IL – Memorial Medical Clinic is proud to announce the launch of its House Calls
Program, providing personalized primary care in the comfort of patients'  homes or care facilities. Led by Dr. Michael Ottney, this innovative service will be available to qualified residents of Hancock County aged 60 and older.

The House Calls Program is designed to offer convenience and accessibility, ensuring that older adults receive the medical attention they need without the stress of traveling to a clinic. This service will help address healthcare needs promptly and efficiently.

“The House Calls Program is about bringing high-quality medical care directly to our patients, where they feel most comfortable,” said Dr. Ottney. “Whether it's managing chronic conditions, addressing acute concerns, or providing follow-up care after a hospital discharge, we’re here to make healthcare more accessible for our community’s aging population.”
Key benefits of the program include:
? Health and Safety Assessments: Dr. Ottney will evaluate healthcare needs and safety
concerns for aging adults living independently or with caregivers, promoting a safe and
supportive living environment.
? Stress Reduction for Caregivers: The program provides significant relief and peace of
mind by eliminating the need for caregivers to transport loved ones or arrange
transportation.
? Short-Term Care Options: The House Calls Program is also available for short-term
needs, such as post-surgery recovery or serious injuries that make travel to a clinic
difficult.
Residents interested in the House Calls Program can call 217-847-3383 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
