Health Guides

ChristianaCare Health Guides offer free support to patients who need help making appointments with doctors and dentists; connections to community resources, financial assistance and prescription assistance; and help with health insurance and Medicaid. Health Guides can help connect you with health care services so you can have regular check-ups and visits to a doctor’s office when you are sick.
