Care Navigator
Our Company:
At Isaac Health, we're on a mission to improve brain health at the population level by providing greater access to specialty brain health and dementia care services for all. We believe that everyone everywhere deserves to get the care they need, and are striving to make care convenient and accessible while tackling the stigmas that surround brain health conditions.
Since launching in November 2021, Isaac Health has scaled to provide brain health and dementia care services to more patients and families across the US. With support from leading healthcare investors, and impactful leaders like you, we'll continue to provide high-quality patient-centered care for the evaluation and management of brain health conditions and deliver exceptional client and family outcomes for years to come. With a heavy focus on clinical quality and safety in all that we do, we've accomplished excellent outcomes for our clients:
92% of patients report an improvement against their cognitive goals in only 3 weeks after working with Isaac Health.
73% of patients or their care partners continue to report improvement in neurocognitive symptoms after 6 months
70% of patients remain engaged with Isaac Health after 6 months
This is just the beginning for Isaac Health, and we won't stop building, growing, and iterating until everyone, everywhere can access high-quality, evidence-based brain health and dementia care without high costs or long wait times. We're looking for mission-driven leaders who share these values, and we need your help as we transform access to high-quality brain health care in the United States and beyond.
