Currently we partner with
Currently we partner with health plans who provide us referrals in the San Joaquin Valley Counties and we also accept self-referrals from clients as well as from community based organizations. A common first visit will last about 2 hours in the home and/or virtually where we complete various assessments including the home environment assessment and health education. Obstacles we have been working through has been the virtual connection with clients who do not have access to the technology and internet. We have addressed that by providing them low-cost internet service assistance and/or providing them a tablet with data plan which we pay for during the duration of the program to allow them to participate.
