Session #2: Slides | Recording

Hosted by the National Nurse-Led Care Consortium and the National Center for Health in Public Housing, this 2-part webinar series discussed promising practices in home visitation and telehealth as ways to support improved access to comprehensive primary care for communities with high levels of disability, and isolation, lack of adequate transportation, and other social drivers of health that contribute to health inequities, particularly residents of public housing.

In the first session, we examined how home visitation can be integrated into the provider panel to expand access for aging and disabled patients residing in public housing. In the second session we addressed the benefits of telehealth, recent changes to utilization, and how to implement telehealth services to expand access in health centers.
