Whole Tribe, Whole Person Approach

WHOLE TRIBE, WHOLE PERSON. Health is recognized as the starting point for building strong communities. The development of personal care teams that coordinate care plans and provide personalized direct care is at the heart of the project, emphasizing that every step in the care process matters. From primary care to specialty care, the initiative ensures that members get the care they need, when and where they need it, infusing a casual yet purposeful spirit into the intended operations.

Personalized Direct Care Tailored to Unique Needs

Augmenting Tribal care systems with coordinated, on-demand provider resources, the project tailors healthcare to the unique needs of community members. It works beside local teams to strategize, implement, and support day-to-day operations with an understanding that every challenge is an opportunity for transformation. Notably, the advisory teams support every step—from newer systems to established Tribal health systems—ensuring that each decision is wise, confident, and informed.

Integration of Traditional and Modern Healthcare

Building upon a foundation of Indigenous Determinants of Health, the project is committed to establishing generational well-being. There is careful consideration of how each business decision impacts Tribal communities. The approach merges traditional knowledge with modern, technology-supported care, effectively implementing Indigenous-led care that extends beyond Western medicine. Reference to the collective wisdom of Native peoples is integral, as the project upholds that every aspect of care should be steeped in cultural relevance and effectiveness.

Strategic support and personal care teams work together to ensure optimal health and well-being, building a healthcare infrastructure that is as dynamic as it is respectful of cultural traditions.
