Contessa is the leading partner for comprehensive care at home delivering recovery care at home, reha

When capacity is tight, delivering hospital‑level care at home gives health systems an alternative to building new beds. By treating less acute patients at home, hospitals can preserve inpatient space for higher‑acuity cases and improve overall flow. This model strengthens system performance and supports more timely access to care!

Happy Easter from the Contessa team. We are grateful for everyone working this weekend to bring comfort and continuity of care to patients at home. Your dedication reflects the heart of our mission!

Occupational Therapy Month highlights the critical role therapists play in post-acute recovery. Contessa’s Rehabilitation Care at Home model allows eligible patients to receive occupational therapy and other skilled services at home rather than in a skilled nursing facility, offering a safe and effective alternative that supports system capacity and patient outcomes.

Doctors have always shaped how medicine reaches people where they are. What began as traditional house calls has evolved into today’s high‑quality care in the home.

At Contessa, we’re grateful for the physicians who carry this legacy forward by advancing the practice of medicine beyond the walls of a hospital. A special thank‑you to our physician leaders — Robert Moskowitz, MD, MBA, Jay Mathur, MD and Michael Nottidge, MD, MPH, MBA — and to the many partner physicians who make this work possible.

Happy Doctors' Day, and thank you for the meaningful difference you make every day.
