Neighborhood Family Practice

It's Medical Assistants Recognition Week! 💙 At Neighborhood Family Practice, we’re celebrating the incredible hard work and dedication of our Medical Assistants. From rooming patients and taking vitals, they play a key role in every patient visit. Their compassion and connection with patients are what make them our secret sauce. We are grateful for how they make every patient feel seen, heard, and cared for.

It’s National Pharmacy Week! We’re proud to celebrate our dedicated pharmacy team at Neighborhood Family Practice. Our pharmacists do more than dispense medication — they provide trusted guidance, education, and care that help patients reach their health goals. With two on-site pharmacies and two more opening within the next year, we’re expanding access to care at a time when many pharmacies in Cleveland are closing. Our mail order and home delivery options ensure patients continue to receive the support they need, wherever they are. We’re deeply grateful for our pharmacy team’s commitment to improving access and empowering patients across our community.

Building Connection Through Orientation At Neighborhood Family Practice, every new team member plays a vital role in advancing our mission to provide high-value health care to everyone—regardless of ability to pay. Five new employees joined our quarterly orientation, including Medical Office Specialists and Medical Assistants. Orientation is more than an introduction—it’s an opportunity to connect new staff to our mission, vision, and the impact we make together in our community. We’re grateful for the passion and purpose our new colleagues bring to NFP as we continue building a team rooted in compassion, collaboration, and care. https://bit.ly/41rwubc #MissionDriven #WorkThatMatters #HealthcareProfessionals

Today marks the start of Midwifery Week 2025. At Neighborhood Family Practice, we honor the dedication and compassion of our midwives and care teams who guide patients and families through one of life’s most profound journeys. Their work embodies the heart of caregiving—providing personalized, relationship-based care that supports health and well-being before, during, and after pregnancy. Community health centers play a vital role in ensuring access to high-quality maternal and family care for all. We are proud to continue this legacy of trusted, compassionate care across our neighborhoods.

✨ At our Annual Meeting, we bid farewell to two dedicated patient board members — Lisa Nelson and Chris Warren. Lisa (pictured) served as Chair of the Quality Committee, bringing the vital patient perspective that strengthens community health centers. Chris served as Chair of the Facilities Committee, guiding important discussions and decisions that shaped our growth. We are deeply grateful to both for their leadership and service. Thank you, Lisa and Chris! 💙 #CommunityHealth #Gratitude #ThankYou

Thank you Community West Foundation for your ongoing support of our work!

Thank you to The Land for sharing the news about our upcoming move to the Clark Fulton neighborhood! Our current Ann B. Reichsman site — including our midwives — will relocate to this new space in early 2026. “Our patients come from every ward in Cleveland and every suburb, including those on the east side like Garfield Heights,” said CEO Domonic Hopson. “We want to make sure that we are positioned appropriately to serve them in the best way possible.” We’re excited to become part of the fabric of this incredible neighborhood and continue providing high-quality care, close to home. https://bit.ly/4mB27Yp
