Home Based Primary Care (HBPC) is a unique VA program that provides comprehensive, interdisciplinary primary care in the homes of Veterans. The program is for Veterans who need team-based, in-home support for ongoing diseases and illnesses that affect their health and daily activities.
HBPC plans involve Veterans working with health care professionals to organize comprehensive care in pursuit of lifelong health and wellness. Accomplishing this requires a team of experienced health care professionals, and we’re looking for those interested in primary care career opportunities.
HBPC providers can include:
- Physicians
- Registered nurses (RN)
- Occupational therapists (OT)
- Physical therapists (PT)
- Psychologists
- Social workers
- And more!
VA offers HBPC to Veterans for any number of reasons, though most usually have difficulty making and keeping clinic visits because of the severity of their illness. Others may be homebound, but the program is also for Veterans who are isolated, or when their caregivers are experiencing burdens.
Whatever the reason, HBPC is just another way we maintain our mission. We serve these Veterans with integrity, commitment, advocacy, respect and excellence, and we let those values define who we are as VA employees and how we’ll fulfill our mission, whether that’s in one of our facilities or in the homes of our Veterans.
