Objective:
To report the implementation as well as the benefits of the Comprehensive Care Model at the second level: Experience of the Medical Specialties Unit, and assess its usefulness in the management and monitoring of patients with chronic diseases.
Material and methods:
9 medical care clinics were implemented as follows, 2 for Endocrinology, 3 Clinics for Chronic Diseases, one for education in diabetes and hypertension, as well as 3 for nutritional support. Absolute values of the number of consultations were measured during the years 2017, 2018, 2019 and part of 2020. Likewise, it was sought to identify the most prevalent pathologies with the idea of having a better control and monitoring of patients, with a better organization of medical and nursing care personnel.
Results and discussion:
It was possible to increase the consultation numbers, with a stricter control and monitoring of patients, in addition to the benefits in terms of training and training of resident doctors, both military generals and civilian health professionals to face these prevalent conditions in our country.
