Embracing Environmental Wellness: Arkos Health’s Commitment

It’s important to amplify what environmental wellness is, and its role in value-based care. At Arkos Health, we recognize that health extends beyond the individual, influenced significantly by the environment in which one lives. Environmental wellness isn’t just about having clean air or water; it’s about ensuring that the spaces where we live, work, and play are conducive to healthy lifestyles and overall well-being. Our commitment to environmental wellness is part of the value-based care we provide.

Value-based care is a healthcare delivery model that prioritizes patient outcomes and emphasizes the quality rather than the quantity of care provided. Central to this model is the understanding that a patient’s environment can have substantial impacts on their health. Environmental wellness involves creating and maintaining surroundings that enable individuals to achieve optimal health and safety. By addressing environmental factors including access to green spaces and safe housing, we can mitigate health risks and enhance patient outcomes.

Arkos Health supports environmental wellness through a multifaceted approach. Our healthcare providers are trained to assess environmental factors during patient evaluations, ensuring that we consider everything from living conditions to community resources. By working closely with community organizations, we help create environments that foster health and well-being.

We also advocate for sustainable practices and initiatives that contribute to healthier environments by partnering with local communities. These initiatives not only improve the health of communities but also empower individuals to take charge of their environmental wellness. Technology plays a key role in our strategy to support environmental wellness, through telehealth and remote monitoring, to ensuring patients have access to the care they need from home. 

We understand that environmental wellness is a cornerstone of value-based care. By actively addressing the environmental factors of health, supporting community initiatives, and adopting sustainable practices, we seek to create a healthier future for our patients and our planet while delivering exceptional value-based care. Together, we can build a healthier world for everyone.
