What do Health Guides do?

Health Guides ensure that people:

  • have individualized, coordinated care plans based on their personal goals.
  • have a connection to appropriate services for the individuals' needs.
  • have a Health Guide they can contact who knows them, is familiar with their situation, and can help.
Who would benefit from a referral?

Referrals are sent by primary care, health, social service organizations, or self-referral

Health Guides assist clients who:

  • Have complex chronic conditions.
  • Are not managing well, even with frequent doctor visits or repeated calls for assistance.
  • Are visiting the emergency department or being hospitalized frequently.
  • Cannot get to regular office appointments, for whatever reason.
  • Are not getting the care and support they need.
