A patient may present in the office with recurrent/exacerbated issues, may be “non-compliant”, or may even be convinced that they are fine - but by visiting them at home, you get a fuller picture of the impact of the social determinants of health on their life. Social determinants of health include economic stability, physical environment, education, food, community/social context, and the healthcare system. In many urban and underserved communities, there are resources available to combat some of the barriers experienced by residents, but this information is not always easily accessible. The Home and Community Care Project aims to connect Asylum Hill Family Medical Center patients in Hartford, CT with community resources by starting the HCC Master Resource Database. In this episode we have UConn School of Dental Medicine student Basant Sallam interviewing Daniel Morocho, RN (UConn School of Nursing graduate ‘20 and a Registered Nurse at UConn Health Center) and Sarah Warzecha, LBSW (UConn School of Social Work graduate ‘21).
