Community Health Workers (CHW) incorporated into Care Teams

In September, we started incorporating CHWs into the medical care teams. The CHW will work with designated patients on:

                     Diabetes control and support

                     Appointments for children who are behind on their vaccinations

                     Appointments for pediatric dental cleanings and exams

                     Connecting patients to community resources when a need is identified

 

Staffing Update

Staffing challenges continue related to hiring Patient Access Center (PAC) clerks. Medical Assistant (MA) recruitment has improved as we are down to one MA vacancy.

 

Suggested Motion
