What Are Medical Social Services?

Medical social services refer to activities that help a patient or the patient's family deal with worries about the patient's health, finances, or other personal issues. These activities may include problem-solving and/or resource identification to address the patient's or the patient's family's concerns.

Medical social services are provided by social workers in the outpatient division. Each social worker that is assigned is responsible for providing the best care and service to each patient.

Testimonials

After I had surgery on my hip, finding a physical therapist through my primary care physician was taking a while. After 2 weeks of waiting for a referral, I called Tristar and they sent a physical therapist to me the next day.

My medical knowledge is not the best. Therefore I searched for someone that could help better educate myself. Once I came across Tristar and called them, they sent me a medical social worker that helped my family and I better understand the care that I needed and the treatment plan that needed to be put in place. I am very fortunate to have called Tristar.

I was in desperate need of a home health aide after my surgery. I was not able to do the normal chores around my house as I used to. The home health aide that came from Tristar helped me beyond words. I thank the team at Tristar for quickly catering to my needs.
