Brainstorming
Case #1: Eric Christensen - care coordination for the youth of transition age. A lot of offices have limited capacity to help with the transition to adult care process. The UDOH Integrated Services Program and the 4 local health departments can help; 12-18 years old is the ideal, but can go up to age 21.
Case #2: Jade Porter, U Healthcare - Jade has heard from several areas that Durable Medical Equipment DME is running short and on backorder. Gloves, oral suction catheters, for example.
Case #3: Ileana Ruiz, Southwest Children's Clinic - Update - they stopped doing curbside visits and went back into the office because of the cold, but it's been a challenge. Need to keep staff safe when both parents are positive for Covid-19. Have gone back to doing visits outside; staff just try to stay warm enough with appropriate PPE.
