Welcome to IMPACT Practitioner Services, LLC, a mobile, home health care practice serving adults in Fort Pierce, Florida, and the surrounding area. I’m Kelli Kraaz, APRN, and as an advanced practice registered nurse, I work to ensure you receive the quality health care you need from your home, office, or wherever is most convenient.
My career spans 35 years, serving in hospitals, clinics, and trauma settings. I have extensive experience making rounds, admitting and discharging patients, and developing personalized treatment protocols. My background has given me the skill set to handle everything from acute and chronic disease management to wound care, preventive care, and more.
As an autonomous nurse practitioner, I function independently of physicians but regularly collaborate with various health specialists. I visit patients' homes, offices, and assisted living facilities to diagnose and treat various medical issues, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), hypertension (high blood pressure), and diabetes. I also provide telehealth visits.
Though I don’t maintain a physical office, I can still use cutting-edge technology, including digital stethoscopes and electrocardiograms (EKGs), that allows me to listen wirelessly, record, playback, and save. I perform most services onsite, but when necessary, I can refer you to nearby clinics and care facilities.
I offer a conservative, patient-centered approach, prescribing alternative and holistic therapies whenever possible. I never rush appointments and dedicate intentional time to learning about your symptoms, concerns, and goals during appointments.
To schedule a home health visit with IMPACT Practitioner Services, LLC, call today or book an appointment online any time, day or night.
