Pressure injuries are painful, dangerous, expensive to treat, and are a common worry for many people with disabilities, especially those living with conditions like immobility, incontinence, diabetes, neuropathy, and other issues that increase the risk of skin and tissue breakdown. Our Health Home Wound Care & Prevention Team supports Health Home members experiencing open pressure injuries. Our certified wound care nurses develop prevention and treatment plans to optimize a member’s ability to heal and remain wound free, working closely with the member, the member’s caregivers, and other Health Home teams to ensure the member is on the road to recovery and prevention.

Your Health Home membership lets us support you if you face complex supply and equipment issues. All too often, insurers and healthcare providers do not understand how important the right equipment and supplies are for the health of someone with a physical disability. Our Health Home team will go to bat for you and advocate on your behalf to make sure the right equipment and supplies are authorized by your insurance. We do this by clarifying what items work best to protect your health, explaining insurance guidelines and necessary documentation, and providing billing codes to assist you in getting what you need – and are entitled to.

Complex and often confusing, getting ready to leave the hospital can be a lot to manage. If you are hospitalized, our Transition of Care team helps communicate with hospital staff about your medical history and to bringing attention to any barriers to care that you may need help with during your hospital stay.

Food security, comfortable and safe housing, accessible transportation, a lack of education and employment opportunities, as well as insufficient access to healthcare – all of these are key to a good quality of life. Many adults with physical disabilities face multiple deficits when it comes to these critical social determinants of health. That’s why we have a Social Determinants of Health team skilled in connecting you to appropriate, accessible community resources and helping you apply for – and keep - important government benefits, such as housing, food and financial benefits, that contribute to your health and wellbeing.

Working with a mentor for three months to more than a year, members talk through issues with someone who knows what it is like to live with a disability – which is exactly what the peer mentors provide.

A primary care provider (PCP) experienced in treating health conditions common among people with physical disabilities, accessible facilities designed and equipped to accommodate your needs, and a well-trained medical staff – these are the cornerstones of quality care. People with physical disabilities have higher rates of obesity, arthritis, asthma, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, urinary tract infections, and stroke. They are also in great need of behavioral health interventions, suffering from higher rates of depression, anxiety, and stress. Our Primary Care Program connects you to a disability-competent PCP who will make sure you get the care you deserve and any conditions you may develop are diagnosed and treated before you become seriously illness or are hospitalized.

We take pride in advocating and fighting for the support, services and equipment you need as a Health Home member but we don’t stop there. We also help members fight discrimination they may face related to housing and employment. Whatever the challenge, we are in your corner to help you get what you need to be as healthy and independent as possible.
