2023
What community groups attended or engaged with the most recent CHNA process? Identify the vulnerable populations represented by these:
To actively engage the community, Redwood Memorial Hospital conducted 7 listening sessions with people who have chronic conditions, are from diverse communities, are elders, are parents with young children, face economic insecurity, and/or are medically underserved. We also conducted 13 key informant interviews with representatives from organizations that serve these diverse populations, specifically seeking to gain deeper understanding of community strengths and opportunities. We also conducted 3 listening sessions with Providence caregivers who work directly with undeserved communities and people. In our most recent Community Health Needs Assessment of 2023 several community groups attended listening sessions or engaged with key informant interviews. The Providence Paso a Paso program invited their clients who are Spanish speaking families with low incomes, many are recent immigrants to the United States and face multiple barriers in accessing care and services from language and culture to transportation. The Providence Community Resource Centers invited seniors/elders who are on fixed incomes and have varying ability levels; all face many barriers in accessing healthcare, are vulnerable due to age, health status and income level. Many face food insecurity and economic insecurity. Another community group included were the unhoused and people with behavioral health conditions, some of whom are in recovery; we included people and clients from Waterfront Recovery Services, Crossroads, County Mental Health, the Housing Authority and St. Vincent de Paul free dining facility. We also included community groups that work with veterans, Medi-Cal participants, and low-income families with children. We spoke to representative from the Veterans Administration who serves veterans with healthcare and social care needs and a physician working at United Indian Health Services and UC Davis who provides family medicine and Obstetric are to Indigenous people affiliated with the tribal healthcare system. We spoke to subject matter experts from the following fields: Behavioral Health, Indigenous Health Care, Harm Reduction, Public Health, Housing Authority, Veteran's Health Care, Law Enforcements, Homeless Services, Economic Development, Education, Child Development, Immigrant Rights and Federally Qualified Health Centers. Our goal was to engage community groups, or subject matter experts that work directly with community groups, that have unique, unmet needs so we could learn about their challenges and hear directly from community members about what they need to improve overall health and wellbeing.
