Скачать или смотреть Webinar: Health Care for the Homeless Models of Integrated Care

Presented by the National Health Care for the Homeless Council
April 13, 2011 | 2 p.m. Eastern

This webinar will focus on the models of integrated care that three health care for the homeless projects have adopted in order to better serve homeless populations. Homeless populations are much more likely to have complex, multiple occurring disorders that include chronic, somatic conditions coupled with mental health and/or substance use disorders. Traditional models of care often separate primary care from behavioral health care, relying on a system of referrals with multiple providers that can be confusing, especially for a patient group that is less able to navigate a complex system and has competing priorities for daily needs.
