They Love their grand kids, backyard barbeques, and serving their church community, but Aging impacts us all.  When Lucy needed help, rather than calling an ambulance and heading to the ER and incurring exorbitant hospital bills, she called Dispatch Health, a mobile urgent care company.  They sent a team of providers to care for Lucy in the comfort of her home, providing her the care she needed…on her terms.
