Since mid December Florida has seen a big increase in COVID-19 cases that has forced hospitals to “think outside the box” and so Lee Health Care of Southwest Florida announced that it will be making house calls called Dispatch Health to alleviate emergency room overcrowding.
Lee Health’s COO Dr. Scott Nygaard said at a Jan. 11 press conference, “Dispatch Health is a new service that we have for Lee Health. And you can schedule an appointment where they come to your home in a car. They provide an assessment and service at home.”
