Your Doctor Comes Home.

Medical care, mental health and substance use support, and help with everyday needs — delivered wherever you live in the District.

Is Freedmen's right for you?

Freedmen's may be a good fit if you or someone you care for:

  • Lives in Washington, DC

  • Has an ongoing health condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, kidney disease, or COPD

  • Also lives with a mental health condition or a substance use disorder

  • Finds it hard to get to the doctor's office because of health, mobility, or transportation

Adults 55 and older are a priority, but all adults are welcome.

What you get

  • Your own doctor or nurse practitioner

    Who visits you at home, with video and phone visits in between.

  • A care team

    A care manager and a behavioral health care manager who know you by name.

  • Mental health and substance use care

    As part of your regular medical care, not separate from it.

  • Medicines delivered

    Organized in easy pill packs by North Capitol Pharmacy.

  • Lab work, x-rays, and EKGs

    Done in your home.

  • Help with daily needs and home care

    Help with life’s basics — food, housing, transportation, paying for medicines, and signing up for benefits like QMB and the EPD Waiver — plus help arranging home care such as physical therapy, nursing, and personal care aides.

Already have a doctor?

You don't have to give up your doctor. We can work alongside your current doctor — helping with care coordination, community services, and everyday needs — or we can become your primary care provider. You choose.

Home is wherever you stay

We come to apartments, senior buildings, group homes, shelters, hotels — wherever you are living right now.

Caring for someone? You don't have to do it alone.

You can request care on behalf of a parent, spouse, family member, or friend. With their permission, we keep you informed and include you in care planning. Our team can also help arrange in-home aides and connect you with caregiver support.
