Staffing Model: Community Health Workers vs Nurses
Submitted by SESchumacher on 16 January 2018 - 3:10pm
What was the reasoning for using CHWs in the Tennessee program? Did you encounter any resistance to using CHWs instead of nurses and how did you overcome that? Are there any challenges/drawbacks to using CHWs and how do you mitigate for that? What are best practices in recruiting- and retaining- CHWs?
