Developing collaborative relationships

Definition of HEALTH/MEDICAL HOME

AccessibleFamily-CenteredComprehensiveContinuousCoordinatedCompassionateCulturally-effective

Care that is:

A partnership between primary care physicians/ nurse practitioners and families

Care Coordination is Key

• Through a Medical Home partnership, PCPs can help the family access and coordinate – specialty care – educational services– in and out-of-home care– family support– other community services

• PCPs and Community Resources must work together to coordinate care

Summary• Primary care needs to be included in planning for

a system of mental health care

• EDOPC training and technical assistance improves providers ability to screen, treat, and follow up with children and make appropriate referrals to community resources

• A medical home is a partnership to help families access and coordinate care
