The Power of a Trusted Provider: Why Physical Health at
InterCommunity Matters

At InterCommunity, we believe that staying healthy starts with having a trusted doctor and nurses you can see regularly—what we call Physical Healthcare. It’s more than just going to a clinic when you're sick. It’s about having someone who knows you, understands your health needs, and helps you stay well.

When people have a regular doctor or Primary Care Provider (PCP)—this might be a physician, nurse, or physician assistant—they’re more likely to catch health problems early, avoid trips to the emergency room, and feel more in control of their health. For people living with diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma, or even depression, a trusted doctor can make all the difference. And for people working through recovery from addiction, our Physical Health team helps with things like sleep, nutrition, and liver health, all of which are key parts of healing.

At InterCommunity, our Physical Health team offers care for the whole person. This includes:

Checkups and yearly wellness exams
Care for chronic conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes
Women's health services like Pap smears, birth control, and STI testing
Help with quitting smoking and staying up to date on vaccines
Support for people in recovery from addiction, including managing medication for addiction like Suboxone, Sublocade, and Vivitrol
Same-day visits for minor illnesses
Connections to help with food, transportation, employment services, and more

We also work closely with mental health counselors, case managers, and community health workers, so our patients get the care and support they need—all in one place.

“Having a trusted team of medical experts by your side can change the course of someone’s health journey,” said Tyler Booth, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer at InterCommunity. “We’re here to walk with our patients every step of the way.”

At InterCommunity, we’re proud to provide care that helps people live longer, healthier, and happier lives.

InterCommunity Staff Celebrate Annual Outing with Fun, Food, and Community Spirit

September 23, 2025

On Friday, September 5, InterCommunity staff came together for a day of laughter, connection, and celebration at the annual Employee Outing, held at High Meadow Resort in North Granby. On a mild late-summer day, team members from across the organization gathered in two shifts—morning and afternoon—ensuring everyone could take part in the festivities. From the moment staff arrived in their InterCommunity t-shirts, it was clear this was more than just a work event—it was a chance to relax, enjoy one another’s company, and celebrate the sense of community that defines InterCommunity. The outing offered something for everyone, from lively games of bingo and mini golf to climbing the rock wall—or simply unwinding and enjoying time together. Many staff took the chance to relax, connect with colleagues, and savor a much-needed change from the everyday routine. One of the highlights was the annual IC Challenge Cup field games, where employees teamed up—across departments—for a chance at the coveted trophy and bragging rights. Cheers and laughter echoed across the resort as colleagues encouraged one another in water ballon tossing, tug-of-war, and other activities. For those who preferred relaxation, the swimming pool was the perfect retreat, while others danced to music from a live DJ or enjoyed a peaceful stroll through the scenic resort grounds. The outing also featured an abundance of food, with options ranging from a taco and nacho bar to barbecued chicken, spareribs, veggie burgers, fresh corn on the cob, and even New England clam chowder. And of course, no celebration would be complete without a decorated sheet cake and ice cream that sweetened the day. A special moment of the event was when staff honored Jeff Hughes, outgoing Chief Financial Officer, who will soon be retiring. Jeff received heartfelt farewells and best wishes from colleagues and had the distinct honor of serving as judge for the cannonball contest—an event that drew big laughs and plenty of splashes. By the end of the day, the Employee Outing had once again reminded everyone that InterCommunity is more than a workplace—it’s a community. Staff left with smiles, full stomachs, and memories of a day filled with fun, camaraderie, and gratitude for one another.
