Homelessness Awareness: Homeless People's Experiences of Healthcare

Event Image
When:  Nov 10, 2020 from 12:00 PM to 01:00 PM (ET)
Associated with  Mu Phi at-Large Chapter

Nurses sometimes find themselves caring for homeless people yet may not be aware of their views toward the homeless and how this can influence the care they provide.  Some homeless people report positive experiences of healthcare services, which create feelings of self-worth.  Others feel judged or invisible and report lack of empathy and compassion in the care they receive.  This can lead homeless individuals to avoid seeking healthcare if at all possible.  What do homeless people need from nursing care?  As Homelessness Awareness Week approaches, learn how you can best serve this vulnerable population.
