Our Need
This year, we have set an aggressive but necessary fundraising goal of $500,000 to cover essential investments in people, programs, and services that are otherwise not covered by patient care and government support – the medically uninsured and underinsured. The key areas of investment for the $500,000 in this fiscal year include:
Access to care – $250,000
Mental and Integrated Behavioral Health – $200,000
Case Management: Obesity & Diabetes – $50,000
Access to Care ($250,000)
- Increase access to preventative care for the uninsured and underinsured populations served.
- Improve accessibility by expanding service hours to include evenings and weekends.
- Develop a recruitment strategy to attract more bilingual primary care providers to our staff.
- Advance health equity and workforce opportunities in underserved communities by employing and empowering trusted community members as integral members of healthcare teams (community health workforce) that use their lived experience to improve health outcomes and reduce health disparities.
- Continue to host vaccine events for the equitable administration of COVID-19 and flu vaccines.
Mental and Integrated Behavioral Health ($200,000)
- Expand integrated behavioral health service offerings at all clinical sites by 2023.
- Increase the number of mental and behavioral health providers, such as social workers and marriage and family therapists.
- Expand workforce capacity by providing additional training and professional development to help QHC become a fully functional, trauma-informed health center.
Care Management: Obesity & Diabetes ($50,000)
- Provide culturally and linguistically appropriate diabetes, hypertension, and obesity preventative education campaigns, nutrition services, case management, self-management training, psychosocial support and patient advocacy, and referrals.
- Optimize medication use and disease management through the Medication Management Program offered by the clinical pharmacists at QHC’s in-house pharmacies and the Pediatric Adult Disease Management (PADM) program offered by the community health workforce (community health workers/promotoras).
- Community health workers provide primary disease prevention and active disease management through health education and community case management through primary care, specialty care, and hospitalization.
