Develop a 3-page preliminary care coordination plan for a selected health care problem. Include physical, psychosocial, and cultural considerations for this health care problem. Identify and list available community resources for a safe and effective continuum of care.

TOPIC: Lack of Access to Healthcare Services

Physical considerations: Limited transportation options, long wait times for appointments, and lack of insurance coverage can prevent individuals from accessing healthcare services.

Psychosocial considerations: Fear of medical procedures, mistrust of healthcare providers, and language barriers can also prevent individuals from accessing healthcare services.

Cultural considerations: Cultural beliefs and practices may influence an individual's willingness to seek medical care.

Community resources: Community health clinics, mobile health clinics, and telehealth services can provide accessible healthcare services to individuals who may not have access to traditional healthcare settings.

Scenario

Imagine that you are a staff nurse in a community care center. Your facility has always had a dedicated case management staff that coordinated the patient plan of care, but recently, there were budget cuts, and the case management staff has been relocated to the inpatient setting. Care coordination is essential to the success of effectively managing patients in the community setting, so you have been asked by your nurse manager to take on the role of care coordination. You are a bit unsure of the process, but you know you will do a good job because, as a nurse, you are familiar with difficult tasks. As you take on this expanded role, you will need to plan effectively in addressing the specific health concerns of community residents.
