Spinal cord injury and mobility care
This is the kind of care that depends most on continuity. Patients with significant mobility limitations need a nurse who already knows their routine, their equipment, and their history, not someone learning it from a chart every visit. We work to keep a consistent nurse or small team on these cases for the long term.
Why families choose Firstat for this.
A plan built for this patient
No fixed package. The plan of care follows the diagnosis, not the other way around.
Licensed clinical care
RN, LVN, and HHA staff performing real clinical work under a physician's plan of care.
Continuity whenever possible
We work to keep a consistent nurse on a case when scheduling allows, so care doesn't reset every visit.
Direct, private billing
Private pay, long-term care insurance, and workers' comp, billed directly.

Ongoing coordination
We stay in touch with the prescribing physician as needs evolve over time.
What we work toward.
Attention to secondary complications
Consistent positioning and transfer support helps guard against preventable injury.
A team that already knows the routine
Less re-explaining of equipment, history, and preferences from visit to visit.
Stability for the long haul
Long-term cases are staffed with continuity in mind, so the care team builds real familiarity over time.
A physician kept in the loop
Long-term coordination means changes get caught and addressed early.
