Just Do It! Starting a Medical Respite (Recuperative Care) Program for Persons Experiencing Homelessness - NCA FEATURED

Mar 28, 2019 7:30am ‐ Mar 28, 2019 9:00am

Identification: PThD1

The National Health Care for the Homeless Council defines medical respite care for homeless persons as "acute and post-acute care for those who are too ill or frail to recover from a physical illness or injury on the streets, but are not ill enough to be in a hospital." This can consist of short-term, residential care that allows individuals the opportunity to rest in a safe environment while accessing medical care and other supportive services. This session will address administrative, financial, operational, and legal issues involved in planning and implementing a medical respite program. Presenters will outline challenges and opportunities in creating the program and explore different models and partnerships created to implement it.

Mar 28, 2019 9:30am ‐ Mar 28, 2019 11:00am

As health care evolves due to rapid changes in technology, demographics, reimbursement, and policy, community health centers have increasing expectations in collaborations, operations, and of course improving patient outcomes and care. In order to reasonably consider and respond to all these opportunities and responsibilities, adequate time and resources for strategic planning may not appear to be available or a priority. Led by a health center CEO and HRSA National Cooperative Agreement Partner, this session will share not only the significance and benefit of planning but also provide realistic tools and experiences for all health centers considering, beginning, or refining their strategic planning process.
