ABOUT PNEUMONIA CARE

At-home support for pneumonia symptoms and flare-ups.

We evaluate your breathing in person, check oxygen levels, and listen to your lungs to understand how your pneumonia symptoms are progressing.
We assess fever patterns, cough intensity, mucus production, and chest discomfort to determine whether your illness is stable enough to manage at home.
During the visit, we review hydration, monitor your respiratory effort, and provide in-home support to help reduce strain and improve comfort while you recover.
If your oxygen levels decline, symptoms worsen quickly, or we see signs that may require additional care, our team guides you on safe next steps and when escalation is needed.
We help family members understand what to watch for, how to track breathing changes or fevers, and when to seek additional help during the recovery process.

Care Guide

When to choose at-home pneumonia urgent care.

At-home pneumonia care is ideal when symptoms need same-day attention but don’t require emergency intervention. Care2U clinicians help evaluate your breathing, fever, and overall stability, guide your recovery, and determine when higher-level care is necessary.
Assess your urgency: If your fever, cough, or breathing discomfort isn’t improving—or has suddenly worsened—our clinicians can assess your lungs, check oxygen levels, and help determine whether your symptoms can be safely treated at home.
You prefer to recover in comfort: Pneumonia often makes travel difficult and exhausting. Our team comes directly to your home to evaluate your symptoms, monitor hydration, and check your breathing without the stress of leaving your home.
You want continuity of care: If we detect low oxygen levels, severe breathing strain, or signs that your pneumonia may require additional support, we guide you on the safest next steps and when hospital evaluation is appropriate.
