Vernon “Toby” Richards came to the UAMS Emergency Department with severe pain and nausea from kidney stones and a kidney infection. He was anticipating a hospital stay like in the past, but this time he took advantage of a new program – UAMS Health Comprehensive Care at Home. He was able to return to the comfort of his home with everything required to treat his kidney stones and infection. He and his wife appreciated being able to get the care he needed with in-person nurse visits and video visits with his doctor without all the disruption and anxiety of a hospital stay.
“This was the most pleasant ‘hospitalization’ we’ve ever encountered. We’ve used words like excellent, outstanding and extraordinary to describe our UAMS Comprehensive Care at Home experience, but they just don’t cover it.” – Toby and Gene Richards, Benton
