¿Qué es la coordinación de cuidados?
At the heart of Care Coordination are connections and referrals that provide positive outcomes. Person Center Centered Services’ Care Coordinators work continuously with individuals, families, community providers and organizations to make sure the people we serve are connected to the care, support and opportunities they need.
The duties of our Care Coordinators include:
– Monitoring circumstances and services during life transitions
– Coordinating access to medical, dental and behavioral services
– Keeping track of safety and residential needs
– Referring to community and social support services
– Creating a holistic Life Plan and adapting the plan as new goals and needs arise
What is a Health Home?
Person Centered Services is proud to serve as a Health Home, helping people with intellectual and developmental disabilities manage all of the care and services they require.
In a Health Home, you work closely with a specially-trained Care Coordinator who helps you better understand and manage your conditions. Your Care Coordinator partners with you to create a plan of care that meets all of your physical, mental health, and social service needs.
In a Health Home, your Care Coordinator can:
– Make appointments with your doctor or a specialist for you, and work with your providers to make sure you get the care you need.
– Help you understand your chronic health conditions and give you information to help manage problems like diabetes, asthma, or high blood pressure.
– Refer you to resources you need to stay healthy, from promoting weight loss and improved eating habits to addressing the challenges of alcoholism and substance abuse.
